Hi,

I'm a newcomer to this forum and found some great answers. Thank you all
for that ;)

But to keep it on track, I was about to say I've got the same problem.
And though I do have it, I also have a partial solution. I'm running a
windows small business 2008 server with exchange 2007 installed. On my
client I run Ubuntu 10.10 with Evolution 2.30.3 installed. This with the
exchange mapi plugin.

I found that I could mail to myself both within our domain as to my
gmail account. Then I found I could not mail to my coworkers, so in my
journey in finding a solution to this I came to this forum. Now I find
everybody here has the same problem. So I started working on a solution
to give something back to the community. I tried to mail to a couple of
coworkers all together and I found that there was 1 coworker that
received my mail. :s So here I present part of the problem/solution.

Everybody (at least in the unix based world) knows that
solaris/unix/linux etc is case sensitive and windows isn't. My coworker
that received the mail has a mailaddress that is listed in exchange with
all lowercase letters. The coworkers that didn't receive a mail all had
at least 1 capital letter in their mailaddress. I tried to change the
mail address of another coworker to all lowercase letters, but it didn't
solve the problem. Probably because windows doesn't mind the case... So
I created a new user account with all lowercase letters, attached a
mailbox to it. Presto !!! I can mail to that user as well.

Bottom line : If the receiver has a mailaddress that was created using
lowercase letters then the problem is solved. Who can confirm this?
