Aha! I have determined that the <a href="http://192.168.10.50">192
.168.10.50</a> IP address belongs to my<br>Print Server. So this
explains the error message that "...some other<br>host is already using
address <a href="http://192.168.10.50">
192.168.10.50</a>." Starting the Evolution<br>EMail shell still
produces the error message, "cannot access Ximian<br>Evolution shell "
;The new discovery is that the <a href="http://192.168.10.50">192.168.10.50
</a> IP address<br>has nothing to do with this.<br><br>However, I did at one
point create a Ethernet connection, eth0, for this<br>IP address. Obviously,
this was a mistake. The question is have I<br>corrupted the TCPIP configuration
somehow (or the configuration of
<br>Evolution)?<br><br>How can I fix the Evolution email program?<br><br>John
