2.6 works well for you with Exchange?! I get nothing but errors, time 
outs and un-responsoveness, from the version included with FC5 right 
through to the current 2.6.2.

It's driven me to the point of setting up IMAP and Thunderbird for all 
my users, but that's made me anything but popular due to the lack of 
calendaring.
