If you want to download your email from Exchange to your laptop, then 
you should NOT configure the Exchange connector. Ask your Exchange 
server admin to enable POP3 on the Exchange server, and then configure a 
POP3 account in evolution. In fact, you don't need the Exchange 
connector. However, using POP3 means you do not get to use any of the 
other features of Exchange.
