Hey Pete, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am aware of the fact they are not for production use but I have tried different versions to see if that was the problem but it is clearly not. I am pretty sure it is configured correctly as if I put the URL on the browser I have to authenticate and it gives me the wsdl link. Does anyone have any other idea?

It doesn't necessarily follow that the URL you use is the same as the one for logging in to OWA. This is almost certainly not the fault of Evolution EWS, but more the arcane and obscure setup of complex Exchange systems. For instance the Exchange 2010 server I use has a web access URL of https://owa.host.domain.uk (real names changed to protect the guilty), whereas the EWS URL is https://host.domain.uk/ews/exchange.asmx And then there's the username required - my external email address is of the form '[email protected]', I login to the OWA interface with my "real" username of, say, 'unmame', but the EWS config requires my username there to be '[email protected]'. Again, I don't think this is really a failing of Evolution EWS, but more a symptom of how Exchange is setup. All I can say is that once it's setup correctly, it works well. All I need now is shared calendar access ... P.
