I understand Evolution needs Mapi support. But I have OpenSuse 11.4 and can’t find evolution-mapi. But, however, with Ubuntu, which had it, I also couldn’t get it to work either, even with the mapi support. I understand that I might need the IP address for the server if that is the case. I have GoDaddy as my exchange server, does anyone know the IP address for mail.ex1.secureserver.net?

ping mail.ex1.secureserver.net => 72.167.180.130

Thank you for that, it will be helpful. Does anyone know how to setup the rest of Evolution for Opensuse 11.4?
I understand Evolution needs Mapi support. But I have OpenSuse 11.4 and can’t find evolution-mapi.
The evolution-mapi package is available:
software.opensuse.org: Search Results
This Ubuntu-based guide offers relevant advice for connecting Evolution to an Exchange Server.
FWIW, you might want to consider DavMail as well
If you want to try the new evolution-ews this might interest you.
evolution-ews
Evolution connector for Microsoft exchange 2007 or later
Provides basic functionality for mail, calendar and addressbook.
I have tried every iteration I can think of for the entries here, with no success. I have entered the ip addresses for both the server and domain name, I pinged my domain to get that info. I have tried the username in full asd@sdfads.com and just asd… I have tried the domain name with www and without. I have tried secure connection and not. Nothing is working.
I have not yet tried Davmail because I’m concerned about yet another layer between the protocols that could cause translation errors in the synchronization.
I have installed the ews connector, but don’t know how to implement it. I’m assuming that my Host URL is my domain with www. However, i do not know how to get the OAB URL. And nothing happens when I click on fetch URL.

I’'ve never had to connect to an exchange server, so can really only point you at these guides:

You do have evolution-exchange installed as well, right?
You’re talking about Exchange '03, that won’t help. I need to sync to '07. It’s completely different protocols.

Thought this might be the case, but I didn’t see where you mentioned Exchange version you’re trying to connect too…
