Description Jason Martens 2005-09-13 20:11:08 UTC 
It would be fabulous if Evolution could use Kerberos to authenticate to my
exchange server, providing a "log in once" environment on my desktop.

Which version of Evolution you are using?
Have you tried gnome-keyring? Evolution 2.7.x has the gnome
keyring support and Single sign on should work there.
Comment 2 Kandepu Prasad 2008-07-30 10:02:42 UTC 
This is not yet implemented. Probably it should be an enhancement.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2013-07-23 14:32:12 UTC 
evolution-exchange only supports the older Microsoft Exchange server versions 2000 and 2003. The last stable release of evolution-exchange was 3.4.4 which took place a year ago.

evolution-exchange is now deprecated and not under active development anymore.

It is unlikely that there will be any further active development.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping.

Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.

Also feel free to reopen this ticket and change the "Product" field accordingly if the reported issue still happens with a recent version (newer than version 3.6) of one of those Exchange backends that are still supported.
Please see https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.8/exchange-connectors-overview.html for more information on available backends.
