I tested it in conjunction with fetchmail and ran into two problems. One I was able to work around, the other not, but most importantly, the setup seems to download mails ok.

	Well, I got word today that my work inbox is being migrated by the 29th of this month from local Exchange to Office365, so can't put this off any longer.

	I don't need caldav or ldap. Not sure if I'll need smtp in the future, but I don't need it immediately.

	I'm not familiar with fetchmail. Would you mind saying more about how you use fetchmail and what you did to get davmail to work?

	I'm using a very old version of mutt, the latest available on RHEL6: Mutt 1.5.20 (2009-12-10)

	My current .muttrc IMAP config:

set imap_pass="*************"
set spoolfile="{aarenson at imap.exchange.iu.edu/ssl}INBOX"
mailboxes !
mailboxes "{aarenson at imap.exchange.iu.edu/ssl}Junk E-mail"
set certificate_file=~/.mutt/certificates
set ssl_starttls=yes
set ssl_force_tls=yes
set imap_keepalive = 10

    	I don't really know what I'm doing with mutt. I've cobbled
things together over the years and they mostly work well enough. Just
trying to figure out how to keep it going.
