evolution


hi
I and my wife want to use Evolution mail client. I'm downloading music so i'm not loging out it's obvious. can i configure evolution like it is in MS outlook to change user in the same desktop without logging out. It's extremely important to me because it took me a lot of time to force my wife to use linux.
thanx

There are a number of solutions to this. Here's ONE that has worked really well for me. Linux can run more than 1 session of X. You have 2 people logged in at once, and a quick ctl-alt-F2 or F1 moves between each users desktop. This allows ALL of the other persons "stuff" to be set up like he wants it, and your "stuff" is the way you want it. Again, this is only ONE of many ways.
