When I clocked on the 'spam' icon in Evolution, I got this error message:

"Failed to spawn SpamAssassin (/usr/bin/sa-learn --spam --no-sync --local): Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/sa-learn" (No such file or directory)"

Is there any way to fix this?

Do you have sa installed?

That must be it. I use Evolution, the spam filter works great but I had installed the packages "spamc", "sa-compile" and "spamassassin" first.

Are you telling me that Trisquel provides Evolution as the default desktop email application, but doesn't provide these dependencies with it? *facepalm* This was never a problem in Toutatis, and is one of a number of issues which need to be addressed in a 7.1 release ASAP.

SpamAssassin is not really a dependency of Evolution. Evolution works without SpamAssassin. SpamAssassin is a separate program that Evolution calls if you choose to enable spam filtering on the client side.

On a related note, I have installed IceDove to see if it is more stable and reliable than Evolution. When I opened IceDove, it offered to set me up a new email address with "Gandi.net". Is this an email provider endorsed by the FSF, or was this mistakenly not removed from ThunderBird when creating IceDove?
