evolution-exchange and evolution severe bugs

[James D]

1st, when evolutions starts up, it immediately has to be restarted to continue.

2nd, the messages show up on my exchange-server account, but if I try to delete it, it immediately crashes evolution. It is
basically unusable at this point.

I logged into a companion Debian/Stable (Sarge) system, installed evolution +
evolution-exchange, created a new account account in exactly the same manner
that I created an account with Breezy, and all works fine. I have now resorted
to using the Debian/Sarge system as a mail server via RDC, but that will not
last forever. I am not one to make threats, because I realize that code
development takes time, etc. But I have basically gotten NO acknowledgement of
this bug from Ubuntu developers. Before I accept this bug permanently, I will
revert back to Debian/Stable and forget Ubuntu. I really like the Ubuntu
concept and all it offers to keep the latest possible code available to the
desktop, but if I cannot read my e-mail, I cannot survive !

You can call it UNCONFIRMED if you want, but I have offered my help on this
matter and received no acknowledgement.

How about it ?

I am happy to report back in that evolution and evolution/exchange appear to be now working correctly on my Ubuntu/Breezy machine (prerelease version, 10/03/2005). Apparently, one or more of
the dependent packages were upgraded because evolution-exchange was not upgraded to correct this problem. What matters is that it is working now and I can keep using my Breezy Badger !

Thanks, I'm glad this is working for you now. Closing this bug.
