** Description changed:

  Evolution fails to authenticate with Exchange servers with web interface
  login form action set to "owaauth.dll" or any other relative path (no
  leading /, or protocol specified). An example of a form can be found
  here: https://webmail.ntu.edu.sg/exchange/
  
- Version of evolution-data-server this happens in: 2.24.2-0ubuntu1
- (intrepid-updates)
+ Version of evolution-data-server this happens in: 2.24.3-0ubuntu1 
(intrepid-updates)
+ This is fixed in version 2.24.3-0ubuntu2, which is in Jaunty.
  
  TEST CASE: Attempt to create a new account in Evolution to said Exchange
  server. Credentials must be valid, and have been verified by attempting
  the web login. Evolution will prompt for the password endlessly, as
  though the password is wrong.
  
  E2K_DEBUG=4 evolution will show the a HTTP/1.1 302 response, followed by
  a GET request to /exchweb/bin/auth/owalogon.asp?something, and then a
  HTTP/1.1 200 response, and a warning message about an invalid URI
  'owaauth.dll'.
  
  What should happen: Instead of a warning message regarding invalid URI
  owaauth.dll, there should be a POST request to
  /exchweb/bin/auth/owaauth.dll. With E2K_DEBUG=5, this request is shown
  to contain the username and password.

+ Regression Potential: None that I can think of.

Evolution Exchange does not authenticate to Exchange servers with a relative 
path in the form action, e.g. "owaauth.dll"
