Re: [Evolution] Evolution-Exchange on Ubuntu Jaunty

Thanks Suman. A couple of follow up questions. 

Our server is 2003. Do the two connectors function in such a way that I can try the MAPI connector, but 
switch back to OWA when needed, i.e., are they activated and deactivated like plug ins?

Our domain controller/GAL server is behind our firewall. Browser access to OWA allows GAL look ups over the 
Internet from remote locations. Evo-OWA allows look ups over the LAN only; not from the other side of the 
firewall. Will evo-mapi facilitate GAL look ups remotely?  That is currently my main reason for wanting to 
try the MAPI connector.

The MAPI connector does _not_ have feature parity with the OWA connector.
http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPIProvider/vsOWA might be handy.

The OWA connector should provide all the functionality it used to
provide earlier. It is not deprecated yet and should still be bundled
with all major distributions alongside evolution-mapi.

If your exchange server is not exchange 2007 or newer, the OWA
connector should perform better than the MAPI connector. Although,
it'd be awesome if evolution-mapi gets a lot of testing :-)
