ditto ... big time. I just tested SLED10 and the evo-exchange connector that comes with that distro. I have exactly the problem described in the bugzilla: "As new messages arrive, the number in brackets after the Inbox grows ie Inbox (20) but the message index does not update, even after a Send/Recieve. Neither can next unread CTRL-] display any of the new messages. Even going into another mailbox and returning to the Inbox doesn't bring up the new messages." Unfortunately that testing box is no longer around, it may be a little while before I can duplicate it. But then, there are still the issues with calendaring (can't schedule a resource, as the apppointment never gets to the resource calendar) and can't open shared calendars. Grr. What is the reason for not providing up-to-date packages for (at least) the various corp-targeted distros? I know, I know: "the distro maintainer" is supposed to. But, really ... the evo team is mostly Novell folks I believe ... and they don't even bother to provide an rpm (not to mention updates in the redcarpet channel) for SLED/SUSE? I really really want to be able to run with evo and sell it's virtues as an Outlook replacement on a linux desktop ... but it is just too buggy and too hard to update at this point. It is SO CLOSE .... _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
