Hi Dan,

Thanks for your help so far. I got one step further, but now during
start-up, evolution says:

Cannot activate component
OAFIID:GNOME_Evolution_ExchangeStorage_ShellComponent :
The error from the activation system is:
Child process did not give an error message, unknown failure occurred

Do you have any clue which causes this error? Maybe I have to take some
more drastic measures (making a complete rebuild or re-install of
evolution and associated RPMs), but I just got gnome-pilot working with
my current install.
