Subject: [Imap-protocol] Telnet IMAP on Exchange 5.5
Message-ID: <3769A1FB7698BB498DA17F14CFF7C889107B43@sbacs0001.sbandcompany.local>

I am unsure of this being the case with Exchange 5.5, but with Exchange
2003 you merely supply your alias (if you have one) along with your
password.  I have actually had this working pretty easily for
alternative access to email if our users cannot access it via the usual
Outlook client (and dislike OWA).
