Evolution is great

Just had evolution save me from an “Egg on face” moment. The one I’m sure everyone has done before, intend to attach something in an email, type the email then forget to actually attach it item.

I did just that, and was prompted with this:

I heard of this type of feature with GMail, not being a user of GMail I never really got accustomed to it, this was a first for me in Evolution, don’t often attach things in emails.

And I bet people fall for it too….
