https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=296671 With latest updates I still see this bug.
I work at an ISP company and we use Exchange for our email servers (unfortunately) and I have used Fedora Core 6 as my work desktop for over a year or so. I would like to update my system (ie. clean install) to Fedora 8 but I need 100% working exchange email client. This is a really big issues with anybody who needs an up to date linux desktop because this bug currently prevents me from migrating to new Fedora 8!
Can you please suggest some way I can use exchange on fedora 8 and so that GAL works? Some beta version of your evolution packages? Maybe some older versions of evolution?
I'm not seeing any issues with GAL on Fedora8 talking to Exchange 2003. Its the first time in the 3 years that I've been extensively using Evolution as an Exchange client that the GAL has worked somewhat reliably. Just about every previous release it would randomly crash after 2-3 lookups. Don't get me wrong its not perfect yet, but where as I use to get a 3-4 crashes a day at best and on some releases I would just outright not configure the GAL lookups at all so it would be slightly stable, this release in GNOME 2.20 seems a lot better than any previous ones that I've seen.
