Hi,

This might be a stupid question, since my knowledge about Exchange is 
really poor...

Since I've got iPhone, I have noticed that IMAP mailbox support is 
quite crippled in this device - in comparison to Exchange mailboxes...
As I assume that it would be easier to convince Bill Gates to install 
linux than to convince Steve Jobs to change anything in his "perfect 
phone", I started searching for something that could serve emails 
similarly to Exchange. Since gmail provides Exchange access, and they 
definitely don't run a single huge MS Exchange server, I assume that it is 
somehow possible to implement Exchange protocols - or am I wrong?

So, finally - if it is possible to use Exchange protocol, would there be 
any plans for implementing it in dovecot?

Best regards,
