Never Botch an Email Attachment Again
Ever accidentally hit ’send’ when composing an email before you’ve attached whatever file you were intending to send? And then you have to send a quick “DOH!” follow-up email with the forgotten attachment.
I do this all the time and it makes me look like a flaming eejit.
Well, a couple of weeks ago I upgraded from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10 and with it came an updated version of Evolution (the Linux equivalent of Outlook). They’ve added a feature that detects if you’ve typed the word ‘attached’ but not attached any files and gives you a warning. Brilliant!
Hello there.
I am just a real newbie to the Linux world, and will be very interested in seeing how your Ubuntu install goes. I have a copy of it.
Take a look at my post from a couple of months ago.
It summarises how it’s been going for me from a designer-slash-developer’s point of view. Linux still isn’t ready for gamers, print designers and other people who rely on proprietary software but it’s a lot better than I initially expected.
