Evo and Exchange

I have never been able to connect Exchange with Evo. 2 so there should
be no cache file. The bug id you pointed to have a cache file located
in ~/.evolution/exchange/NAME_OF_ACCOUNT/..., there is no such file
directory on my system. I have a
~/.evolution/mail/exchange/Windows_Domain/Name_of_Account/ which is
empty. Should I have a ~/.evolution/exchange (no mail directory in
front of exchange)?
I have a RH9 install of the connector that is working fine. There are
other people out there with the same issue, they have mailed me to see
if I found a fix.
Thank you for responding.
