Thunderbird DOES sync with an MS Exchange Server: http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/03...change-server/

Maybe if you responded with a *little* more information, you'd get a better response. As far as I can tell, Thunderbird 100% satisfies your query. Maybe if you told us WHY it doesn't, and what feature it doesn't support, we can help you. But not until then. Evolution supposedly works with MS Exchange Servers, but it's really Gnome-centric and you'd have to install a lot of dependencies (if not Gnome entirely) to get it to work.

Please provide more information if you need help.

afaik, thunderbird comes in the default slackware install in the xap packages. It doesn't require Gnome stuff, just the stuff thats needed for firefox.

duryodhan, I was talking about Evolution when I said that -- Thunderbird is indeed included in stock Slackware (and I'm currently using it).

Actually, you DIDN'T say that. You said next to nothing. I'm glad you got it working, but in the future explaining yourself fully will greatly increase your chance of success (and it will piss off others less).
