--- Comment #4 from Christian <gentoo at moin.fi> ---
I have the same issue with kdepim version 17.12.3.  The password is stored in
the password dialog, and clicking on "Try connect" works - the status on the
tab "Status" changes to OK then and presents the Exchange version number (in my
case, 14.3.361.1 Exchange 2010 SP3).
But the "Subscription" tab shows "Failed to retrieve folder list", and when I
close the dialog with OK, the account itself shows "Unable to connect to
Exchange server".
If you need more info to diagnose this problem, please let me know.

Another, maybe unrelated issue - in the Evolution EWS plugin, I can login to
the EWS account using my email address and password. In the akonadi plugin, I
have to use a strange user name that took me a while to find in the interface
of the Exchange webmail.
