Outlook.

Sure, it's a piss-poor mail client, but it's the *only* Exchange client[1].

I'd *really* like to offer a different PIM client to the staff here, 
especially the mac users who're stuck with Entourage, but there really 
is no workable alternative to Outlook. And I'm not in anything 
approaching a position to demand a switch from Exchange.

[1]I know there is Evolution, but it's sorely lacking in features. I 
keep meaning to force myself to use it long enough that I can compile a 
decent wishlist, but I keep needing to be productive in money-earning 
ways instead.
