Hi all, Thanks for the support. First of all, I want to clarify why I used root to run the evolution and rebooted after the installation. There is a but in the launchpad that it describing this problem ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-ews/+bug/1061195). If you'll review the comments bellow the bug description you will find out that under root it supposed to be working. Also, there is a reference to the big in Gnome Bugzilla (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746900), in which one guy described why evolution and all evolution processes should be restarted.
Today I reinstalled Evilution and configured the Exchange account one more time. And it works! I think that there was a problem with the settings I provided. I'll wait for a while to let Evolution to synchronize all the emails. Again, thank you, guys. 2017-02-20 22:22 GMT+03:00 Pete Biggs <p...@biggs.org.uk>: > > > > > The application just asking me to provide a password. > > Recently I was able to configure the evolution, but I have to run it as > root. > > You should never have to run Evo as root, nor should you ever, ever do > so.
