fetchmail would be your friend and suck all ms mailboxes (imap to imap)

you can try to crack passwords on M$ boxes, so no need to reset or
regenerate passwords.
how about the mailbox on the Exchange server? Is it possible to migrate
existing mailboxes in a Linux? any ideas...

You can use pam_ldap for authentication but i guess exchange/ldap doesnt
store uid/guid so you need still to create users in /etc/passwd or
somehting. For the configuration, ive read sometime ago about it (try
search arrayservices exchange server replacement howto) Also, we can
take a look at the new samba which has improved active directory
support. But the fastest way is just export all users (and
reset/generate password), then create a script to add to your new
mailserver.

the linux md5 password format (e.g., can we get them in plaintext

can be used for authentication on linux? (e.g., LDAP? i don't
know how LDAP stores passwords, is there a standard LDAP hash that
works the same in Win* and Linux?  or are the hashes not compatible
so that we'll still have to go with sniffing or forcing them to
change their passwords or something else like that authentication
proxy i was fantasizing about previously? :).

isn't this what PAM+LDAP is for?

has someone implemented a working system?
