davmail

i have an davmail proxy setup for accessing an Exchnage 200x server. eMail works fine in Thunderbird and Evolution (IMAP...) LDAP Contacts/Address Book works in TB, but not on Evolution.

It seems that Evolution does not try the given credentials. The entered LDAP Auth is never send to the DaVMail Proxy.

anonymous access to ou=people forbidden
davmail.ui.tray.DavGatewayTray.displayMessage(DavGatewayTray.java:96)

It the same conf for TB and in Evolution so i looks like an issue with Evolution to me.

Does it take some different cponfig than TB for the credentials? Anybody got this conf workin an can give me some hints?

Thanks,

WegDamit
