Please provide us with some basic information: what version of Ubuntu
are you using?  What version of Evolution are you using (use
Help->About).

Do you have to use an AD domain when you log in, or just the default
domain?

Have you checked the box in the password dialog that says "save for
future sessions" or similar?  If you go to Edit -> Preferences, select
Mail Accounts and your Exchange account then click Edit, then go to the
Receiving Options tab, what options do you have selected?

If you go to System -> Administration -> Keyring Manager, do you see an
Exchange key in the keyring?
