evolution wombat problem?

[Reinhard Sy]

Hi Bart,

thanks for this information but this does not work for me. Same
errormessage. After syncing the first Address beginning with letter 'D'.

I will have a look into the gnome-pilot list. In the eveolution list I
found nothing. 

I also tried Evo 1.5.x but the same error.
