Re: [Evolution] evolution mapi issues



Ubuntu 9.10 / Karmic has Evolution 2.28.1, but the MAPI code is still 2.28.0 for some reason.

dpkg -l | grep -i mapi
ii  evolution-mapi                             0.28.0-0ubuntu1
dpkg -l | grep -i evolution
ii  evolution                                  2.28.1-0ubuntu1

It has not picked up the four critical GIT checkins yet (mentioned elsewhere on this list) , and still (because of the downlevel MAPI) does not work out of the box with Exchange 2007.

I used 2.26.1 also, it was partly stable in my experience. 2.28.1 is
rock-solid for me. As mentioned, 2.28.0 is (IMO) crap, but it was fixed
REALLY fast. Unfortunately due to gnome's release system, the fix was
only released at 2.28.1, unless you want to compile it yourself (that's
what I did).

I haven't touched my Buntu install for ages, so I have no idea what
version Karmic has. You should check, and lobby for 2.28.1 if you have
to.
