RE: Evolution 0.99

Hi People,
Here's what i got so far:

Installed Evolution with not too many hassles...
The IMAP works fine except i can't figure out how to change the view on the
folders..  I mucked around a bit with the files etc but i can't figure it
out...    if anybody can let me know how to change views either in evolution
or by modifying the .xml files in the appropriate directories let me know..

The LDAP doeswn't work very well.  I've played for about and hour trying to
get it to go.  a port scan showed that i have a ldapssl on port 636 and a
ldap on 389.  389 returns no error but no results either when i say use
anonymouse or authenticate.  636 returns an error Application "Wombat"
(process 15265) has crashed due to a segment fault even before i get a
chance to type in a search string...

For comparision, i've got outlook express on XP using IMAP sucessfully as
well, and also LDAP works fine, returning both name/email searches and also
substring searches....

Any comments or things to try out ppl?

Matthew
PS apoligies if i used the wrong terms for things, newbie here...  =)

Is there an echo in here?

I've not tried at any great length to get Evolution's LDAP client to
talk to Exchange. It'd be nice if it did work, but I'm not entirely
sure. Is there anyone around that is near an Exchange box with
Evolution that could have a play and report back?
