Previously when configuring our business emails, we have been told to leave the &quot;Domain&quot; field blank.<br />
<br />
Followed the instructions provided and guess the domain to be @companyname.com, but then &quot;Authentication failed&quot;<br />
<br />
So, that didn't work.<br />
<br />
What could I be doing wrong?<br />
<br />
Thanks for supporting.<br />
<br />

you can use a tool davmail downloaded from sourgceforge, it will connect to exchange on MAPI, and then you can configure your mail client to connect to that tool on localhost.

Hi,<br />
<br />
With great enthusiasm I installed the latest distro of Ubuntu - codename &quot;Nutty Narwall&quot;, or 11.04 to some of us.<br />
<br />
I am trying to connect to our Exchange Server, and searched the net for &quot;How to&quot;s, with no luck.<br />
<br />
There seems to be a plugin - Evolution-Exchange which stated it's only compatible with 2003 and 2007, not Exchange 5.5<br />
<br />
Please could someone help, or provide instructions as How to connect Ubuntu Evolution to Exchange 5.5 (as an end-user, I do not have access to server-side) please?<br />
<br />
Would be much appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thank You.<br />

Kind Regards,<br />

How to connect ubuntu 11.04 evolution with Exchange 5.5?

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
