Just as a point of order, I've tried DavMail and haven't had much more
success with it in terms of the things I really need Exchange support
for, which is primarily calendaring with the ability to schedule
meetings, see free/busy information, and get meeting reminders than with
the MAPI plugin.  Which is to say, basically none.

In fact I haven't had much more success at all with davmail.  I only
fooled with it for a half-hour or so, maybe if I made a committed run at
it I could get it working better.
