+      <para>
+	After <application>Evolution</application> starts up, you will
+	see the <interface>main window</interface>, which looks a lot
+	like in <xref linkend="usage-mainwindow-fig">. On the left of
+	the <interface>main window</interface> are the
+	<interface>shortcut bar</interface> and the
+	<interface>tree-view</interface>.  Just underneath the title
+	bar is a series of menus in the <interface>menu
+	bar</interface>, and below that, the <interface>tool
+	bar</interface> with buttons for different functions. The
+	largest part of the <interface>main window</interface> is
+	taken up by a welcome message.  <!-- para does not end here
+	but after fig! -->
+
+<!-- ==============Figure=================================== -->
+
+<!--
+Make sure that this figure meets its descriptions below: it should
+show the shortcut bar, the tree view with some trees expanded, and so
+forth.  Can these things be labelled with little arrows & stuff?

+	  <para>
+ 	    The appearance of both
+	    <application>Evolution</application> and
+	    <application>GNOME</application> is very easy to
+	    customize, so your screen might not look like this
+	    picture.  You might configure
+	    <application>Evolution</application> to start with a
+	    different view, or without the <interface>shortcut
+	    bar</interface> or <interface>tree view</interface>.

+	<para>
+          The <interface>tree view</interface> is the most comprehensive way to

+          appointments, address cards, emails, and so forth.

+          starts small at the top, and branches downwards. There are a
+          few folders you will always see, because they're at the top.
+          On my computer, they are: (ch. to itemizedlist w/descriptions?)

+          Right-clicking will bring up a menu for just about anything
+          in GNOME, and <application>Evolution</application> is no
+          exception.  If you right-click on a folder, you'll have a
+          menu with the following options:
+	  <itemizedlist>
+	    <listitem><para>Something</para></listitem>

+         <title>Context-Sensitive Help</title>
+	  <para>
+            You can almost always get help on an item by
+	    right-clicking it.  If you're not sure what something is,
+	    or don't know what you can do with it, right-clicking and
+	    choosing <guimenuitem>Help</guimenuitem> is a good way to
+	    find out.

+	<para>
+          If a folder has other folders in it, there will be a plus
+          sign next to it. Click on the plus sign, and you will see
+          the other folders inside.  This may change in the future to
+          something more attractive, like triangles that drop down as
+          you click on them to display the rest of the tree.
+        </para>
+

+          Any time new information arrives in a folder, that folder
+          will be highlighted, or its label displayed as bold
+          text. You can learn more about customizing
+          <application>Evolution</application> alerts and appearance

+
+	<para>
+          (CHANGE that title! THIS SECTION BELONGS SOMEWHERE ELSE!)
+          You can drag the folders inside the tree view to change
+          their order or put one folder inside another.  To delete a
+          folder, you can drag it into the trash folder.  The same
+          goes for individual messages, appointments, and address
+          cards, whether they're in the <interface>tree
+          view</interface> or not: drag them where you want them, and
+          they will go there. (IS THIS TRUE?)
+        </para>
+	<para>
+          You can also use the <guimenu>right-click menu</guimenu> to
+          move, rename, and delete folders.

+          Once you've familiarized yourself with the <interface>main
+          window</interface> you can start doing things with it.
