Awesome! Some more pointers : http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPIProvider#Download - This page has some information on compiling evolution-mapi (Sadly it is outdated. For evolution-mapi you would need to use git. and for openchange it is still in svn) http://www.go-evolution.org/MAPI_FAQ Feel free to ping me on IRC. I'm 'jony' in #evolution and usually available from 0500 UTC to 1200 UTC. > > > > I am new to GNOME development. > > Great!
