to let them fix the broken Exchange server setup.

<strong>Is DavMail based on Outlook protocol ?</strong>
</p>
<p>Outlook anywhere uses MAPI RPC over HTTPS to access company LAN through the firewall.
DavMail does not use MAPI at all but relies on WebDav (Exchange 2003/2007) or EWS (Exchange
2007/2010) to access Exchange. This means you need direct access over HTTPS to either the OWA WebDav
url (/exchange/mail@company.com) or EWS (/ews/exchange.asmx) to access Exchange with DavMail.
