Yes, but only Exchange 2000 and above. It uses HTTP WebDAV to access the
data via the server's owa url (e.g. http://server/exchange). Sounds
kludgy but it works well. As others have said, reliability of Evolution
seems to be pretty good now. I have been using it for some time and for
once have not felt the need to give up and boot into Windows at all.

I don't seem to have access to my Outlook 'Notes' folder though.
Evolution has its own Memos, but this is separate to my Outlook/Exchange
notes. I haven't looked into this so perhaps it can be fixed. Anyway,
this is way off topic - just don't bother trying Outlook in Wine, get
used to Evolution instead.
