20.15 ‑‑evocontrol

Determines which versions of Evolution are allowed to access the post office. Users might experience problems using Evolution to connect to their GroupWise mailboxes if they are using Evolution 2.6.0 or earlier. In addition, earlier versions of Evolution can cause high utilization on GroupWise servers.

To encourage users to update to the latest version of Evolution, you can use the ‑‑evocontrol switch to configure the POA to allow only specified versions of Evolution. For information about configuring a post office to support Evolution, see Supporting SOAP Clients.
