GroupWise users should have little trouble using Evolution to access their GroupWise accounts. Evolution and GroupWise use very similar terminology. Users familiar with one system should be able to learn the other with minimal effort.

On the ‘Sending Email’ page, select ‘SMTP’ in ‘Server Type’, specify the hostname of your GroupWise server in ‘Host’, set the other ‘Sending Email’ options as appropriate for your system, then click ‘Forward’.

On the ‘Account Management’ page, specify the name you want to use to identify this account on the ‘Evolution Settings’ page then click ‘Forward’.

Click ‘Apply’ to create the GroupWise account. Your GroupWise mailbox now appears in the list of available e-mail accounts.
