 How can I communicate with that Exchange box to get all my mails by
 mutt or fetch- and procmail?
 Smtp sending is no problem. I am using a thin postfixserver on my
 laptop, which sends the mails to mail.smtp.company!

I use Mutt at work with Exchange 5.5, using exim as my MTA,
smart-hosting to the exchange server. I download my mail with
fetchmail, since exchange supports POP3 as well. Works fine.

:) That's probably what made them paranoid.

Make sure the admins have enabled IMAP, and use mutt's IMAP
functions. Works fine.

Am I missing the point? I'm no Exchange guru, but can't you just use
pop, IMAP or fetchmail? Does Exchange honor the usual mail retrieval
protocols?

HTH,

I'm not shure whether they do it! They are very paranoid and still
only Oulook is enabled!

Thank you

If they're paranoid, why do they use M$ products?

Well, check! You have to specify a mail server in Outlook as well, and
you can probably use the same settings with mutt.
