Evolution Mail, alternative Linux à Becky!
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Evolution can replace Becky! for users who need a full‑featured email client with calendar and contacts integrated. It handles POP3/IMAP, multiple accounts, filtering, address‑book import/export and basic HTML rendering, all while staying within the GNOME desktop. However, it is heavier than Becky! and brings many extra modules that may feel unnecessary to those who only want a simple, low‑resource mail reader. If you are comfortable with a more complex UI and want the added calendar/task features, Evolution is a solid choice; if you prefer a tiny, single‑purpose client, you might look elsewhere.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Becky!
Evolution cannot directly open Becky! proprietary data files. Becky! stores mail in mbox files, which Evolution can read, but address‑book formats differ. You will need to export contacts from Becky! to a standard format such as CSV or vCard before importing them into Evolution. The exact steps depend on the Becky! version you have, so consult its documentation for export options.
Passer de Becky! à Evolution Mail, étape par étape
- Export Becky! mail folders as mbox files
- Export contacts to CSV or vCard from Becky!
- In Evolution, add a new mail account and point the local storage to the exported mbox files
- Import the CSV/vCard file via Evolution’s address‑book import wizard
- Set up any needed filters or rules in Evolution to match your previous setup

Can Evolution handle large mailboxes like Becky! does?
Yes, Evolution works with both mbox and maildir formats and can manage large mail stores, though it may be slower than Becky! on very low‑end hardware.
Is there a way to keep Evolution’s UI simple?
You can hide the calendar and tasks panels and use the mail view only, which reduces clutter but the underlying application remains the same.
Will my existing Outlook/Exchange accounts work in Evolution?
Evolution supports Exchange via EWS, so most Exchange accounts will function, though some advanced features may require additional configuration.
