I built a brand new version using my makefile and tried again, and got
this same error again.

After I got this in the log file, I got a new dialog asking me to
re-enter my password:

        Unable to authenticate to Exchange MAPI server.  Please enter
        the MAPI password for psmith     

I re-entered my password (I was leery of this because the other day I
locked my account by Evo asking for my password too many times in a row)
but the second time it took and worked.

It doesn't seem anyone has any ideas what this problem might be?  Which
"Key file" are they talking about here, and who is supposed to create
the group "Passwords-ExchangeMAPI"?

Note I had checked the "remember this password" box.  I haven't tried
restarting Evo to see if I have to retype it again.
