Never had an issue The only feature that it seems to lack is support for namespaces such as those offered by cyrus with shared folders. Craig I agree with Craig's sentiment about Evolution + IMAP. No problems. Now, Evolution + Exchange Connector, that's a different story. My mail box at work is on Exchange, and at the moment that probably isn't going to change. I found the Exchange Connector to be too slow in versions prior to 2.12 (inefficient recursive checking of mail in folders/shared folders), but that 2.12 had it's own share of Exchange problems (calendar messages were messed-up, *all* attachments came through as that stoopid winmail.dat crap). I've found that when dealing with Exchange and people on non-Windows (even OSX w/o MS Office), you have two options: 1) Get rid of Exchange. (IMO, preferable) -- or -- 2) Enable IMAP, use what-ever client you want, and use OWA (Outlook Web Access) for your calendaring. (not perfect, but works) Now, I've heard of rumours that someone is working on a native MAPI plug-in for Evolution (Connector uses OWA's RPC-over-HTTP), but no ETA as of yet. --Tim _ Too many interrupts - \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ). ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

However, I do believe the original poster is looking for something that supports Exchange Server, presumably in Exchange/Outlook native mode. Good luck. That is a proprietary RPC based server-side email system, in that mode its neither POP nor IMAP.Exchange Server can be configured to support POP and/or IMAP users, but then you lose all the groupware 'benefits' of Exchange. . ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
