→An Overview
When you first start up Evolution (which can be run from the command-line or from the GNOME Desktop menu) for the first time you will be presented with a set up wizard that will take you through the configuration process. After the welcome screen has been dismissed, a screen will provide the option to restore previous mail and settings from a backup. Assuming you have no backup from which to restore, click the Forward button to proceed to the Identity screen as illustrated in the following figure:

* Your email address. Typically you will use the domain that was set up in the main.cf file. For example [email protected].
Once you have filled in these fields click Next to proceed to the next stage of configuration which is where we tell Evolution how to pick up received mail.
