[Evolution] RE: [Evolution] Evolution and Exchange.

[Adam Moskof <AdamM Amdocs com>]

Ah, but you are not cursed with having a project at a company which has
quite fascist restrictions. There is a firewall here which only allows proxy
servers access to the internet on ports 80 and 21. So I can't even connect
to anything (except web and ftp) outside of the fw anyway. And outside of
hacking the firewall, something my boss probably wouldn't be too keen on, I
need to be able to work with the local Exchange server. Oh well, maybe the
exchange server will break and they'll move to qmail...

You probably thought of this, but a temp solutions is to get a personal SMPT
server somewhere on the net and use that. If I have the same problem, won't
know until next week, then I'll use the free one at yahoo.
