Dear all,

I am new to both Linux and Evolution mail. I tried lots of times to make 
evolution mail 2.26 (installed in ubuntu jaunty9.04) work with Microsoft 
exchange server of my school but failed. After desperate google and past 
evolution mail lists digging, I found no solution to it. So, please help me out.

With evolution account assistant, after choosing "Microsoft exchange" as server 
type and input account name and server address, I clicked 'Authenticate' button 
and input my password. The little cute window saying "Could not connect to 
server:please check URL address....." will then poped out. No matter which 
server I tried, the same result I got.

Because working within school's network, the computer is connected to the 
internet through a proxy server. I have set it up using Ubuntu's "Network 
Proxy" and applied it system wild. I even deperately make evolution work with 
manually proxy settings. It changed nothing.

I also set up a hotmail account, and it failed to fetching mails. Debug logs 
says "could not connect to pop3.live.com".

I also checked plugins of evolution, found no exchange-server-related plugin. 
(Neither exchange MAPI nor evolution exchage, though both of them are shown in 
server types menu in Receiving Mails setting tab.) I manully installed 
evolution-exchange 2.26  for ubuntu through Synaptic Package Manager, but 
nothing's been changed in plugins list of evolution.

How can I make sure that evolution has correct connection to internet, and is 
the exchange plugin working?

Thanks a lot.

Best wishes,
