- <title>Scheduling With the Evolution Calendar</title>
- <para>
- The <application>Evolution</application> calendar allows
- you to schedule events for yourself or a group of people.
- It can handle events that repeat, event lengths from ten
- minutes to multiple days, and events that have a date but
- no specific time. You can set overlapping events, although
- <application>Evolution</application> will warn you about
- trying to do two things at once. You can also set event
- reminders so that you don't forget about everything you've
- just put into your calendar. Basically, it can handle almost
- any schedule you throw at it.

- automatically send email to each person on the request
