<strong>Is Exchange 2010 supported ?</strong>
</p>
<p>Currently, the answer is no. As Microsoft decided to drop WebDav support in Exchange 2010, DavMail will
not work with this new version. New Exchange Web Service support compatible with Exchange 2010 is in the
roadmap, but not yet available.</p>

<strong>How do I secure DavMail connections ?</strong>
</p>
<p>Communication between DavMail and you Exchange server is secured by default as long as you access
OWA over HTTPS. Communication between the messaging client and DavMail is <em>not</em> secured by
default. This is not an issue in standalone mode as all communication is local, but you may want
to improve this in server (shared) mode. This is quite simple: you just need to get a server
certificate in PKCS12 or JKS format and add it in the key store section in DavMail settings,
see <a href="gettingstarted.html">Getting started</a>. You need to choose the key store type in
davmail.ssl.keystoreType: PKCS12 for .p12 file and JKS for java generated key stores. Then set the full
path to your certificate file in davmail.ssl.keystoreFile and the certificate file password in
davmail.ssl.keystorePass. You may also have a key password in addition to the file password, specify it
in davmail.ssl.keyPass.
This will switch all DavMail services to SSL mode: POP3S/IMAPS/SMTPS/HTTPS/LDAPS.

<p>
<strong>Are my credentials safe ?</strong>
</p>
<p>DavMail does not store Exchange username and password, they are provided by the messaging client over
IMAP, HTTP, POP, SMTP or LDAP
