I am also having this problem, evolution-exchange crashes every time at startup on my work PC, and very often (about every 5 minutes) on my laptop. Evolution is currently unusable, as the exchange backend connector doesn't run long enough to receive any messages.

At the moment i have to fall back to OWA.

I am not sure if this is actually the original bug, though i fixed the exchange connector dropouts by changing the auth-type from NTLM to Basic.

see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=498099 for more info.

Andrew

Evolution is much more stable if you the global name server is not specified OR if you always have connectivity to it. It is not happy having one listed and then it not being available, unfortunately.
