I haven't touched my Windows' machine all day and won't for the next 14. However, one program I already miss from my Windows' computer is my wonderful anti-spam software called Cloudmark Desktop [1]. Adam and I talk almost weekly about Cloudmark Desktop. We have both used it since we discovered it at the old Comdex computer show five or six years ago. Currently, they don't have a Linux version of the software and don't plan on it anytime soon. The Evolution program that comes with Ubuntu works very well, and I will test its anti-spam solution that is built-in and learn to tweak it over the next two weeks.
If anyone reading this knows of a fast, accurate anti-spam software for Evolution in Ubuntu, please let me know.
Other than email, I haven't done much else today on my own computer. I'm using Firefox to post this article tonight, but it works almost identical to the version I use on my Windows' machine.
I read the comment about backup on Ubuntu, and yes, I will look into that this week and post any solutions that I come up with here on the site. Thanks for the comment and suggestion.
