I vaguely remembered that you have to use the Exchange server IP
address, not hostname (lame!!) so I tried that and I did get it to
connect without crashing this time (uber-lame!!)

However, I still see some of the same problems as before: about half of
my inbox has no subject line listed in the summary window.  The calendar
does seem to work "better" but there are still a number of meetings
missing that should be there.  I can't query free/busy information on
other attendees when I create meetings (critically important!)  I
haven't tried things like sending meeting invites.

Any email I send to external addresses still has the TNEF attachment.

GAL seems to actually work with this, though, which is nice!
