Hi Poornima,
Thanks for the tip. With my OWA URL pointing to the web-facing Exchange
server (FRONTENDEXCH01), the debug traces as follows:

As you can see from both traces, Evolution immediately tries to authenticate agaist our Exchange
server containing only public folders (BACKENDEXCH01), and doesn't redirect to the server containing
my mailbox (BACKENDEXCH02).
I'm rather puzzled by this, having no previous experience with Evolution and the Exchange connector.
Thanks very much for the help so far!
Regards
Christopher

there.
That gives debug traces.
