Evolution Setup Assistant Doesn't List Exchange as a Server

English Applications
1

Hello All,

After running openSUSE 11.0 as a VMware image hosted on WindowsXP and
liking it so much I finally took the plunge and installed it as my
secondary OS on my Dell Precision M6300.

Everything seems to have installed correctly except when I run the
Evolution Setup Assistant I don’t see ‘Exchange’ as a server type.

Do I have to install something special to get ‘Exchange’ support? The
documentation seems to say that it’s already built in.

Any pointers to documentation or direct help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
John

D’oh! I didn’t look hard enough in the available documentation, my bad.

Yes, there is something else that needs to be installed to get Exchange
support in Evolution: The Evolution Microsoft Exchange Connector.

Once I installed the package ‘evolution-exchange’ and ran the Evolution
Setup Assistant again, Exchange showed up as a server type and I was god
to go.

Thanks,
John
