Yes, it's still a severe problem in Jaunty, using Evolution with
Exchange 2003.

The remaining problems are:

Filtering new message(s) (0% complete), ignores new mail and unable to
quit - happens about once every two hours, and about half the time on
suspend/resume or VPN drop

Error while Refreshing folder, because evolution-exchange has crashed -
daily

Unable to see new mail in Incoming, requiring SQLite table to be rebuilt
- most times after a forced quit

Lock up - almost every time the connection is lost

Spins a CPU - alternative to crashing/lockup

Starts/stays disconnected when network is up - around 1/3 of starts

Starts/stays connected when network is down - every time

Forgets passwords - every time it tries to fetch mail without a network

Local replication of calendar doesn't work at all, and has never worked
for me.

Crash in composer - now as rare as once a month

Things got much better in Hardy with the LDAP patch, but got much worse
again with the switch to SQLite. I now have to do

/usr/lib/evolution/2.26/killev && rm
~/.evolution/mail/exchange/u...@exchange.example.com/folders.db

every time something goes wrong. On the plus side, the above commands
always seem to fix things. Yes, I have a Global Catalogue Server name.

I haven't tried with Karmic yet, but I will once it's in beta. Right
now, anyone using Evolution against Exchange 2003 must have
extraordinary patience.
