I just tried to set up an evolution account with an exchange server in fc6t2 and I noticed that the "receiving mail" setup doesn't ask for a server address. Whereas it used to ask for username and "OWA URL," it now only asks for a username. The setup wizard seems to recognize that there is missing information, because the "forward" button isn't active. Is this a known problem?
Thanks...

Just checked bugzilla and it doesnt seem to be a known issue.
Make sure you have all the updates and if the problem persists please file a bug report in http://bugzilla.redhat.com against evolution-connector.

Make sure you have the "Exchange Operations" plug-in enabled. Look in Edit -> Plugins. For some reason that plug-in likes to disable itself.
I don't know why "Microsoft Exchange" is even listed as a Server Type in the Account Editor/Assistant if the plug-in is disabled.

Bingo... that was the problem. Very confusing to a user that's going through the wizard and couldn't have changed the plugin settings yet.
Thanks...
