[Bug 338982] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV during MAPI authentication

[stevecarl]

There are two projects associated with getting this to work. One is
Gnome, specifically the Evolution subgroup of it. Their mailing list is
evolution-list at gnome.org.  You can also track the project at their Wiki,
which is http://www.go-evolution.org/Main_Page. This is only for
Evolution and the Evolution-MAPI package ( which has it's own page at
http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPIProvider ). Evolution-MAPI does not
actually provide the MAPI protocol interface to Exchange, but is the
"Shim" or "Adapter" or "Connector" that sits on top of the MAPI software
being created by the OpenChange project

http://wiki.openchange.org is the main web presence of OpenChange, and
of interest there is the MAPI doc:

http://wiki.openchange.org/index.php/Category:MAPI_Library

and the Evolution Doc:

http://wiki.openchange.org/index.php/Category:Evolution_Plugin

One of the main developers of the Evolution-MAPI stuff, Johnny Jacob,
also has a Wiki:

http://johnnyjacob.wordpress.com/category/tech/gnome/

All of these resources would be good places to register your deep
interest in the progress of this feature. While it would be nice if
Ubuntu had Exchange servers, and developers working on this feature set:
Would in fact make the idea of using Ubuntu as an MS Windows replacement
desktop in a professional environment more even more compelling, they do
not at this time.
