Three Plugins You Can Use To Make Thunderbird Work With Microsoft Exchange

Now that I am using Bauer-Puntu Linux on my company laptop, I no longer have the luxury of using Microsoft Outlook which works seamlessly with Microsoft Exchange.

True, you can configure Thunderbird to connect to Exchange using IMAP over SSL, but that only gives you email and none of the other goodies.

With those three plugins, I am able to use Thunderbird with Office365 without issue.
