  Anyone know if the above either supply their own Extended MAPI
provider software, or implement the Exchange MAPI wire protocol?

  If not, you're still stuck using PST files with Outlook.  PST = BAD.
 Most of the "Exchange replacements" I've encountered suffer from this
problem.  They implement SMTP and IMAP, which would be enough for most
client software.  But Outlook started life as the Exchange Client
software, and it still reflects that, in that it doesn't really work
well unless it's talking to an Exchange server, or something else that
acts like one (i.e., implements Extended MAPI).
