Hi Mathew,
Yes I found this exact same problem, unfortunately I don't really have all that much time to try and find a workaround for it right now.
I'm really looking forward to this patch, I use Evolution at home but it's pretty much impossible to use at work (on Exchange) due to the performance lag (it's ALWAYS updating folders). This may finally deliver a truly workable alternative to Outlook in the enterprise, which would be impressive.
Cheers, Andrew

Hi,
I've read recently about the performance patch in Evolution-exchange 2.11.5, which brings a major performance boost to the searching of folders (from minutes to msec!). Information about the patch is here: http://vvaradhan.blogspot.com/2007/06/evolution-exchange-performance-s eries_28.html
I had a look at compiling it manually, but due to the dependency on exchange-data-server I don't want to start messing around with this just yet.
It is also available in fedora-development (shows up as a FC8 packages) but again, when I tried to install this I had problems with Evolution, it just wouldn't connect to exchange.
I tried the devel version, but it wouldn't even start due to an undefined symbol in evolution-data-server, using both the latest release and the devel version of evolution-data-server.
I'm just curious if anyone knows when this is expected to be released as an upgrade for FC7 (ie available via yum) ?
That would be nice.
Thanks, Andrew
