If they're both reasonably well-behaved mail clients, they should
generally leave each other alone. I've not had major issues doing
Exchange or OWA from one client, and IMAP from thunderbird -- but I've
not tried evolution in a LONG time.

For a previous job, I was using davmail (http://davmail.sourceforge.net)
to act as a imap/caldav/ldap gateway between my Thunderbird and the OWA.
I never tested against outlook365 but a simple google search seems to
indicate that it's doable/working

Just my two cents ..

And, actually, I don't care about *anything* but simple mail reading. When
I need to use the calendar, such as scheduling days off, I use the web
acces. But trying to go through a couple hundred emails a day (lots of
workstations and servers, lots of logfile emails) is going to kill me.

I dunno. Thanks, Fabian.

Going through various stages of the corporate email outsourcing craze with
different versions of Exchange, I have never ever gotten davmail to work. Never
tested it with o365, and don't care as long as they don't cancel imap
here. Don't see that happening, however.
