Sigh ... the project is named openchange not openexchange ;-)

Yes it has. 

Unfortunately we always/still come to the same answer:
        - this tool doesn't currently exist in openchange trunk /
        branches
        - we truly lack developers and/or available time to handle this
        particular development at the moment

However, there has been efforts in the past (GSoC 2008) to integrate
OpenChange to fetchmail:
http://mknod.org/svn/fetchmail/branches/BRANCH_MAPI/

This may be a potential work-around or part of the solution to your
current problematic.

Cheers,
Julien.
