evolution-exchange 2.2 in hoary doesn't work where username != mailboxname

[Doug Langille]

I've seen this posted in the forums a few times, but didn't see the bugzilla entry. Ximain has it (resolved?!?)
at http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=73627.

The problem comes into play when the username does not match the mailbox name. For example, our E2K environment
has first.last as the mail box name and first.last@domain for the email address. However, we have to login using
the netbios username of the format DOMAIN\NBUSERNAME.

In Warty, the evolution-exchange connector allows differnet fields for both username and mailbox. In EVO2.2, the
mechanism is by parsing a URL.

Our OWA URL is of the format https://owaserver/exchange/first.last

I've tried a few different combinations of playing with the fields to no avail.

I've also worked with EVO2.0 on Warty, got it working for my OWA server and then upgraded to Hoary and promptly
broke my client.

Heya! It looks like an additional fix went into CVS for this one yesterday.
What arch are you using? I can provide you a quick package to test and get this
in once all the release candidate fun is done.

Tks,

Belay the last, it's in the deb deistributed on 2005-04-05... I tried to work
around the "Can't find Mailbox" issude by adding it to the OWA URL.

I had to un-fix the fix, now it seems to be up and running just fine, thanks.
