The development of Evolution keeps rolling. If you'd like to taste what 3.60 will be like, we just pushed the first development version (3.59.1) into our beta channel on #Flathub.
It's release day today! 🎉 Are you looking forward to Evolution 3.58? It features even faster search. You get results instantly, even in folders with tens of thousands of messages. It also introduces calendar previews in invitation messages. All that to make you even more productive.
The new version has already hit the beta channel on 
#Flathub; the stable channel will follow soon.
eudoxosAnyone using #evolution with calendar? For me it has been unusably slow since a few weeks (version 3.52.3): a new appointment takes 30s to save (saving changes...). Testing Thunderbid&lightning now, with the same self-hosted nextcloud, and it happens immediately. Any hints how to debug that?

Indeed.
As for me I switched to Evolution because of a sync bug in Thunderbird that messed up meetings. I enjoy it… And miss it on my professional Windows laptop.

Jeff Fortin T. (風の庭園のNekohayo)Great news for @EvolutionGnome users: in Evolution 3.58 (expected to ship alongside GNOME 49 in Q4 2025), the calendar events conflict checks in meeting invitations received via email will now respect the user preferences; this will boost performance quite a bit: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1441#note_2382738
We will need someone to implement the corresponding per-calendar property in #GNOMECalendar's calendars management GUI, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/1297
Stephan SaalfeldIf you are using the @EvolutionGnome mail client on @ubuntu and you are writing e-mails in plain text (as you should to keep simple things simple), you have probably heard people complain to you about forced hard line breaks that look stupid on cell phones. There is no setting in the client to switch that off, but you can
gsettings set org.gnome.evolution.mail composer-word-wrap-length -1
to soft-wrap. Whenever you open the settings dialog again, it will reset to 31 of all things, so don't...
Evolution 3.56 is now available in the stable channel on #Flathub, too. What is new? A lots of smaller improvements and fixes. Especially those using Microsoft 365 may appreciate this release because there is improved support for Graph API.
Enjoy!
Evolution 3.56 is being released today. We've already shipped it in the beta channel on #Flathub and the update for the stable channel is in the process.

Chad McCulloughI'm normally a @thunderbird user, and I love it, but decided to give @EvolutionGnome a try since it's been a few years. I can safely say that we, in the Open Source community, have some awesome choices.
