OK, My initial attempts were to an exchange2000 mailbox via exchange2000 OWA 
(running on Windows 2000 Server)
Following a lead from Justin Haygood I had my mailbox transferred to 
Exchange2003.  Unfortunately I still have problems
but they're probably Exchange/OWA related (now there's a surprise!).

With Exchange2003 the following message appears when I click on "Authenticate" 
and supply my password:


Exchange Connector requires access to certain
functionality on the Exchange Server that appears
to be disabled or blocked. (This is usually
unintentional.) Your Exchange Administrator will
need to enable this functionality in order for
you to be able to use Evolution Exchange Connector.

For information to provide to your Exchange
administrator, please follow the link below:

Having taken a quick look at our E2K3 OWA server we don't appear to have 
URLScan installed/configured.  I've asked if
this could be considered for testing.  (un)fortunately I'm the only person so 
far who's "bitten the bullet" and switched
to using a Linux desktop (having been issued with a new PC ;-)

For the time being I'll just have to keep on using a windows XP virtual machine 
(under VMware) to access my internal
exchange/outlook email (my external email address gets delivered to Unix and is 
picked up by Thunderbird).

I can understand the desire to have Evo communicate with E2003 but...

a) there doesn't appear to be anything *obvious* to say it will *only* connect 
to 2003
b) There's no Help facility to advise the user about what config details are 
required
c) There's no mention of the URLScan requirement.
d) Why assume that anyone running Exchange these days will be running 2003 ?

As I said in my initial message, the connector supplied with evolution on 
Solaris didn't have a problem connecting to
exchange 2000 (haven't tried it with 2003 yet)

All things considered, though, I rather like the look/feel of 10.1 (even more 
so with SLED 10 - menus are less "busy")
compared to SLES9 and earlier. I'm hoping that with a bit of arm twisting I can 
get our exchange 2003 servers set up to
allow me to use a single email client.

I'll keep folks posted as to progress (or lack of it!)
