How do I uninstall Evolution?

[michael wilson]

evolution-data-server and evolution-data-server-common remove ubuntu-desktop
and gnome-panel when you use the complete uninstall.  I do not know enough
to know everything, but the names of these packages indicate something about
the d panels not showing up after a reboot.

I love to experienment and learn about these things.  I have been using
computers since 1981 and want to learn as much as possible about this new
ubuntu release which people claim will replace windows.  I do this because
50 people or so always call me with computer problems and if they buy the
new walmart computer will linux, I want to know about it and how to help.

Blessings,

Michael
