Connect Evolution to Exchange 2007 MAPI: “Evolution is the groupware suite for the Linux operating system. It is, for all intents and purposes, Outlook for Linux. The only downfall is, out of the box, it doesn’t play well with Exchange 2007. But, like every other hurdle the Linux community has come up against, a work around was created.
