I'm not sure why that would be: is it because your server admins don't
allow sending mail via IMAP?  I can send mail via IMAP to our Exchange
2007 server and it works.

No need for documentation.  After you install the appropriate Evo
backend package, to go Edit -> Preferences in Evo and add a new account,
and select the account type "Exchange MAPI".  Fill in the appropriate
values for the server and username etc. as normal.  It should be fairly
straightforward but ask if you get lost.
