[MacTUG] Mac email - not from field value in sent mailbox after change over to Exchange 2010

[Steve Hellyer]

Hi All,

Looked into this more while I was down in California last week. Yes there are still issues with Exchange 2010.  It pretty new "hence name Exchange 2010". :-)  Currently we haven't stated compatibility with it but it is something we are working on with MS.  They have changed some of the server behaviours and we need to make changes client when talking to 2010 server vs 2007 server and these changes are not trivial. Of course IMAP standard has not changed so they should work.

I don't have any confirmed dates as to when it will be fully supported but it something we are looking into and we are working with Microsoft to best resolve.
If new information comes my way I will be sure to post.
