I found something awry here, and I'm not sure if it's Evo, Gnome or
CentOS (not a clue!):

I noticed this problem originally at home, but I rarely send emails
out directly from Evo there, but then I noticed it here at work, too.
So I opened the Contacts window.  Okay, I tried to.  I got an
immediate error that Evo could not access my addressbook and to check
and see if the path existed.

Here's the path:  /home/mrichter/.evolution/addressbook/local/system

Here's what I found:

So I'm stumped - I own every single directory down the path to the
addressbook, and the addressbook itself, and I have write rights to
all of them.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
