I absolutely love Open Source for the collaborative efforts
available.  I've been working on Exchange support for the default mail
client since it hit Open Source, but hadn't heard much in the way of
others working on it.  Since k9 is a community driven variant, I've
been including my work there so it's available to others.  It's
actually made a lot of progress so far.  You can check out the
"exchange" branch of k9mail (http://k9mail.googlecode.com).  With any
luck within the next couple of days an alpha release with Exchange
WebDAV support will be available.
