Comment 173 for bug 631395

I changed from Windows to Ubuntu with Version 9.something and Evolution did work very poorly with the same problems I have described here from the beginning. I was therefore desperately waiting for Ubuntu 10.04 and as I eventually installed it, no improvement. So I started again to wait for 10.10 and again no improvement. Besides the efforts and the knowledge (which I do not have at the moment) necessary to step back, I have no confidence that the behaviour of Evolution would be any better.
For a long time now I was happy, if I succeded in refreshing my mail folders maybe 2 or 3 times a day and I learned to "survive" with that situation (using my Webclient or my IPhone for urgent matters).
I have a pretty complex setup on my notebook with lots of software I'm using and I'm no Linux professional. It is almost impossible for me to hop around between releases and distributions.

For me it is hard to understand, that Evolution Exchange seems to work flawlessly in some Linux distributions, but not in Ubuntu.
Based on the reactions we receive here and elsewhere on our problems, I do not see a probability of improvement. If somebody would step up and tell at least, where the problem is, even if it would mean to wait for an other couple of months, that could be ok with me.
But to me it seems, that nobody has a clue about the problem itself. So how can I expect any improvement, if not even the problem seems to be identified?

I would even pay for a solution, if I only could realistically expect one.
