Hi!

I'd like to see this automation in action first, if possible.

Pete Biggs raises a valid point about the "evolution of Evince" though.
Would this be tagged as an Evolution Mail topic then?
How "smart" is this automation?

What needs to be done/okayed/whatever to have you(?) set this up for us to
try out?

Before somebody asks, I'm just a lowly enduser and have no idea about
automatic tagging on web forums and stuff like that. 
I just want to use the information available here in a fast and easy
fashion. :-)
