Hi

MAPI seems get evolution connected to exchange server, but crashed
frequently. I'd like try Brutus. How to configure Brutus?

In Evolution Account Editor, there is a session 'Brutus Settings', it asks for

Exchange email address
Window Domian
Brutus Server
Brutus Server port

Can someone explain what are these, in particular the brutus server and port?

Thanks
