due to the relatively new found joy in having a working distcc setup again. i decided to upgrade my current Evolution 2.0.2 to evolution 2.0.3... which, based on the changelogs would offer better imap handling... true enough imap handling was improved (a tad faster than the former version)... the downside, i can no longer load my calendar, contacts and todo's since evolution-data-server would crash at every attempt... *sigh* the perils of being an open-source upgrade-happy junkie...

luckily, i remembered doing this before the upgrade -> tar cvjf ~/backup/evolution.012105.tbz ~/.evolution
