I have 3 mail accounts, 2 IMAP and one Exchange. When I try to start evolution with the exchange account disabled, all is good. If I then enable the Exchange account, or try to start Evolution with the account pre-enabled, evolution crashes. Reliably. Every single time.

Expected Behavior
-------------------------------
Correct access to Exchange server using evolution-exchange plugin

other info
--------------
This used to work pretty well before the update (in Ubuntu 10.04). When I saw pretty well I mean when I ignored the "lost connection to exchange server back end procees".

[TheBlueSage (thebluesage)]

so I take the silence as meaning you need more information. Here are some observations :

1. When I open evolution using --offline it does not crash.
2. In that mode I Remove all accounts
3. I then close evolution
4. open evolution WITHOUT the offline and I am prompted to set up mail accounts.
5. I can set up IMAP mail acounts, multiple, with no problem.
6. When I try to add an 'exchange' account, the mere act of selecting the 'microsoft exchange' option from the dropdown and letting go of the mouse button causes the window to jump to the next tab, this being 'Receiving Options'. If I then click the 'Receiving Email' tab I see that there is nowhere for me to put in the OWA details. This is a single input bos with the title 'Username'. There are no other options.

7. If I change the ServerType to 'Exchange MAPI' and let go of the mouse button, the screen also flicks over to hte 'REceive Options' tab.
8. In fact, whatever option I choose for the 'ServerType "dropdown whenever I release the mouse after making my selection, the tab changes to the 'Receive Options' tab. I have to click back to add further "Receiving email' options. This is true for IMAP, IMAP+, 'Exchange MAPI' ... all of them ... even 'local delivery'. I would suggest that the bug search starts there

Yes I am a programmer and Linux sysAdmin, and yes I am familiar with the debug /bug hunt process
I have been using Linux for my desktop since circa 2000 (Redhat 5.2 pre-fedora days)

What can I do to help here?
I am trying to promote the use of the Linux desktop as a valid replacement for windows in the Enterprise, but this s a show-stopper. I am one of two pure linux desktops in a company of windows users. You guys had this working perfectly before, what happened?

Please guys, what can I do to help? you want straces? debug traces? access to my machine? pizza?
And yes I also understand that it is an opensource issue and that everything takes time, and that there are other bugs ahead of me, I am just trying to help

Thanks for all that you do :)
