I've tried evolution-mapi; it doesn't really work well enough for _me_
to use it yet; let alone well enough for me to ship it to users. In
fact, it's currently telling me that my calendar is _empty_.

I *could* work on evolution-mapi, but I don't really want to -- it's
already obsolete. Even with Exchange 2007, Microsoft were saying "Forget
MAPI; move to EWS". As soon as Microsoft no longer care about the 'old'
versions of Outlook, they'll drop MAPI support and we'll be left with
nothing again. I think we should stay ahead of the curve.

Besides, I'm more interested in *sync* right now than I an am online
client. That can come later...
