Dear Users,
I am new to Linux and i wish to setup Evolution with some private outlook accounts as well as a business outlook account.
Please help with step by step instructions as anything that i have tried from google search was done in vain.
Thank you in advance.
Welcome to the Forum!
You could take a Look at this Thread:
Here is some help if you want to integrate Outlook into Evolution, including tasks and shared calendars. First make sure that the "evolution-ews" package is installed, which is easiest to check with synaptic. Then open Online Accounts in the menu and set up Outlook as follows:
E-mail: your Outlook e-mail address
Password: your Outlook password
Username: your Outlook e-mail address
Server: outlook.office365.com
I hope it helps one or the other
Hello and thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately, it did not work like this...
What are the exact settings i have to do?
I need to set both private and business accounts.
Have you previewed this thread?
Hello, I’m trying to use evolution with a corp Outlook account - but not the EWS backend. I use the outlook.office365.com IMAP server with oauth2 auth. This all ends up working fine in Thunderbird, with the “right” outlook backend also...
You would need to setup each account individually and their authentication.

For clarity also, is this Outlook 365?
Hello.
The 2 of them were not but i managed to set them up after 2 days of searching and trying different settings.
The other one is a 365 account.
Did not try this one yet.
And one google account.
