Comment How to connect to Exchange (use DavMail proxy) (Score 2) 283
For everybody operating in a corporate environment mail, calendar and address book are delivered by an Exchange server. Thunderbird is good for pop3/imap/ldap which are all open standards but Exchange doesn't talk these protocols.
Enter DavMail -- a proxy that connects to Exchange server on one hand and exports pop3/imap/ldap on the other. I have been successfully using it for the past 3-4 years.
