That's assuming that the exchange server is version 2000 or newer and
has the web services enabled. Older versions can only talk pop/imap
to non-outlook clients and while that isn't too bad for text,
attachments show up as unusable ms-tnef parts instead of mime.
It does work OK to use evolution/imap against the same exchange
mailbox you access with outlook - even at the same time - so you
can resort to outlook when needed to open an attachment.
