About:
DavMail is a Java-based gateway that enables non-Microsoft email clients to connect to Microsoft Exchange servers by translating standard protocols. It exposes Exchange services via standard protocols like IMAP, POP, SMTP, CalDAV, CardDAV, and LDAP, allowing users to use their preferred mail client. This allows seamless integration of Exchange with clients like Apple Mail, Thunderbird, or mobile devices without requiring MAPI.

Key Features:

Protocol translation for Exchange (MAPI to IMAP/POP/SMTP/Caldav/Carddav/LDAP)
Cross-platform Java application
Supports Exchange 2000/2003/2007/2010/2013/2016/2019 and Office 365
Integrated LDAP server for address book lookups

Use Cases:

Using Apple Mail or Thunderbird with a corporate Microsoft Exchange account
Syncing Exchange contacts and calendars to macOS or iOS native apps
Accessing Exchange via IMAP/SMTP on Linux systems

Alternatives:

Outlook – Native client vs gateway for non-native clients
offlineimap – IMAP sync only, no Exchange protocol support
