>From the upstream bug [https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307589#c25]:
evolution-exchange only supports the older Microsoft Exchange server versions 2000 and 2003. The last stable release of evolution-exchange was 3.4.4 which took place a year ago. evolution-exchange is now deprecated and not under active development anymore. It is unlikely that there will be any further active development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. ** Changed in: evolution-data-server (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Won't Fix ** Changed in: evolution-data-server (Ubuntu) Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution-exchange in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/52654 Title: Evolution will not use GNOME proxy settings of http_proxy environment variable to access Exchange via WebDAV Status in Evolution Exchange - Exchange Plugin for Exchange: Won't Fix Status in “evolution-data-server” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “evolution-exchange” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution-exchange Subject line says it all. As far as I know, Evolution does use the Gnome proxy settings for images inside emails, but does not for proxies, and when I tried using the syntax http://proxy.server:port/my.exchange.site/exchange it did not work either. I know that the proxy is working because if I set it in the Gnome proxy settings and then use Places/Connect to Server and use the WebDEV protocl I can connect just fine and browse through my email directories. At first I thought of this as a new feature, but really it is a bug because Evolution, as any GNOME application, should be following GNOME settings for everything, not just selectively choosing what HTTP requests it uses the proxy for. I feel like this would be a one or two line fix in the code, and I would love to use the version of evoloution that supports HTTP proxying properly :) Thanks Misha To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution-exchange/+bug/52654/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
