That's correct. Any account using the Exchange-based accounts will be sent through the Exchange server. There is no "outgoing" server option (for that matter, there's no "incoming" server option...it's all Exchange). If you are unable to send mail via Exchange, it could be an authentication issue. There's generally two, one for incoming and one for outgoing (it'll ask you to authenticate when you click "Send"). If you check the "Remember password" box before you enter that outgoing authentication, it should work from then on. > > I even tried to setup another account for outgoing mail like I did with Kmail; > > one account for incoming (IMAP), the other account for outgoing via local > > sendmail. > > > > Any advice? > ---- > exchange connector requires exchange server but neither kmail nor > thunderbird can make exchange connection so they use only standard imap > & smtp protocols with exchange server. > > ditch the exchange connector on evolution and you should be fine > > Craig > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxx - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
