#Davmail ubuntu install#
for the calendar you need to install another add-on called “Lightning” and then another add-on to sync Lightning with your exchange calendar found on this URL the add-on I use for email and GAL access is called ExQuilla and you can search for it in the Thunderbird add-ons manager.

To get your Microsoft exchange email setup in Thunderbird you need to install a few add-ons. Thunderbird is the default email client in Ubuntu, while Evolution is the default client in Ubuntu GNOME and Fedora.

for aesthetic reasons I don’t like Evolution ( I think Evolution is way overdue for a face-lift ) so Thunderbird is my preferred email client. Evolution supports Exchange through a native EWS plugin, while Thunderbird has no native support for Exchange. In Linux there is Evolution and Thunderbird for email, contacts and calendar. pretty soon you find out that there is no other email client that can replace Outlook when using exchange, because Exchange and Outlook are built for each other, so trying to find a client that behaves and work the same way as Outlook in Linux is a fruitless effort. when you switch operating system from Windows to Linux and need to use Exchange for email and calendar every day, it becomes a struggle trying to tweak or find a Linux email client to replace Outlook. Now with the cloud hype, many businesses are moving to Google Apps ( good for them ) and others to Office 365 which is basically an Exchange server hosted in a Microsoft data center. Microsoft Exchange is very popular in businesses for email, contacts, and calendar management.
