[Wlug] Evolution plugin for MS Exchange

[chuck]

Hi All,

I'm running kubuntu feisty with evolution 2.10.1. I'm trying to use the 
exchange plugin to connect to the MS 2003 Exchange Server at work.

I have all the info about the implementation of Exchange from the IT folks, 
but I just can't make the plugin work. When I enter in my password, I 
get "Can not authenticate. (password incorrect?)" error.

For the "Identity"
- Username is my name (not surprising...)
- Email address is my fully qualified email address.
For the "Receiving email"
- Server type is Microsoft exchange
- Username is my domainname\username (Note: I've tried it without the 
domainname, still no joy).
- OWA URL is the webmail URL (this has been confirmed by the IT folks)
- Authenticate - I enter my password - seems to be ok.
- Authentication Type - I've tried both secure and plaintext
For "Receiving options"
- Global Address List/Active directory settings - There's no entry

I've looked at the Ubuntu launchpad website and there seems to be a few issues 
with the plugin.

When evolution starts, it tries to search for mail folders, but finds nothing. 
I can't even terminate the process. I have to find out what pid number it is 
and terminate it with the 'kill <pid>' command.

Has anyone managed to get this working? Is there some "magic" tweaking that I 
need to do?

TIA,

-Chuck
