Comment 71 for bug 207723

Thanks very much! The key point from your steps there was to run
exchange-connector-setup-2.24 from the command line, as when I tried to
follow the new account wizard from the accounts options, it wouldn't
authenticate me even though the website I entered was clearly there and
doing a normal HTTP authentication with the same password, and I tried both
plaintext and secure modes.

Even after today's fixes, the add account process is still broken, but I'm
just glad to get calendar at all. Perhaps the simplest fix is to drop in
that setup tool instead of the builtin one?
