On my laptop: bhaskarks:~# apt-cache policy evolution evolution: Installed: 2.0.4-2 Candidate: 2.0.4-2 Package pin: 2.0.4-2 Version table: 2.4.2.1-1 991 991 http://mirrors.kernel.org sid/main Packages 500 http://mirrors.kernel.org etch/main Packages *** 2.0.4-2 991 500 http://mirrors.kernel.org sarge/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The good news is that evolution 2.0.4-2 does connect to MS Exchange using OWA (you have to use ximian-connector-setup-2.0 to set up the connection). The bad news is 1. evolution 2.0.4-2 periodically crashes and even more frequently just hangs. 2. I have had zero success getting any more recent version of evolution to connect to our corporate Exchange server, and no one has been able to help. Even if someone were to point me to guidelines on debugging, I would be happy to follow through, but that did not happen when I asked for help on this list. Incidentally IMAP/SMTP access to Exchange appears to be reasonably robust across all versions (but if all you want is IMAP/SMTP access, why use a heavy weight mail client like evolution).
