Matt & others,
I've just tried this at home, using an
Evolution-Exchange account remotely.
Again, it is impossible to get the conduit to retain
the selection of the ev-exchange calendar / addressbook / todo
list.
This surely IS a bug, isn't it? Or is there some
fix?
Jamie
In fact, when I close the window and reselect, I find that the WRONG
calendar has been set. It changes it to a personal calendar (local).
I've
just synced (very annoyingly) therefore against the wrong calendar
etc..
Any other suggestions?

I wasn't aware of that bug, but I can reproduce it. The good news is
that the blank field seems to be entirely cosmetic - the configuration
change has in fact been made. If you close the config window and reopen
it, you'll see the selected calendar correctly set.
