I've been wanting to use Evolution for a mail client for a while.

I set it up for my wife and she loves it.  However I am using local mail 
spools that are NFS mounted and I could never get it to check mail without
a locking complaint.

Tonight I decided to check again and with googles help found.

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-redhat-list/2001-November/msg00020.html

The comments at the bottom

> 	# chown root.mail /usr/sbin/camel-lock-helper
> 	# chmod g+s /usr/sbin/camel-lock-helper

Did the trick!

So now I'm going to try and migrate from Kmail to evolution.
