The Exchange system I have access to (can't really say "use" 'cos I don't!) is a no-go with evo-mapi (it's a clustered multi-site setup accessed through a proxy using SSL encrypted connections). DavMail happily connects to it and seems to reliably deal with calendars and GAL. I don't use Exchange for anything serious (yet) so I can't comment on anything beyond adding and displaying calendar entries.
