Works like a treat! I did have the issue of empty attachments but since contacting the developer, they have fixed the issue. If you are still having the issue, update the addon in the settings page, and you should find all works fine after this. Such a great addon and the first I've found that works with our email provider over OWA! Well done guys!

Finde ich Klasse das sich immer wieder nette Menschen User mit Software auseinandersetzen und sie vielen Usern dann anbieten. Warum sollte man nicht mal eine kleine Spende hinterlassen. Ich spende immer mal wieder in freie Software wenn ich das kann. Leider habe ich kein grosses Portmonee. Doch viel Lieber würde ich genauso gut Programmieren können um das alles mit zu unterstützen.

I have tested this new Add-On in version 0.51 on Thunderbird 60.4 on KUbuntu Linux 18.04. The OWL-functionality works, except for the already reported bug with the attachments which occurs occasionally, but not always. The very new EWS access doesn't do the job right now as it doesn't catch the inbox, but only the sub-folders and has apparently also still an issue to get the contacts and the GAL. Integration with Enigmail works insofar as inline PGP is ok - a great feature would be PGP/MIME! The EWS would be really good as a cleaner access. Based on the current experience of a product in an early stage I am optimistic that OWL will be very helpful. Currently I leave it running in parallel in a separate installation, and use productively Exquilla.
Update: The developer has responded to the attachment issue immediately and thoroughly; obviously a complex thing which is rather based on the environment and the protocol than on the actual add-on implementation of the protocol itself. So, a five-star update is well earned. I am very hopeful for the this add-on, having experienced the commitment of the developer.

Version 0.5 works fine with TB 60.4/60.5 (Linux) OOTB, but can't store attachments (always empty = 0 Bytes)
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.5).Hey muzel, we have investigated the "attachment is empty" problem and found that Exchange itself blocks certain attachment file types, depending on the server settings, see for example for Office365 https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2852113 . In the coming 0.6 version, we will show when the attachment is blocked by the server due to its file type.
Could you please send us an email at owl.support@beonex.com , to verify that this indeed is your problem and the upcoming version would address that? I don't know how else to reach you.

Addon is great! It works with Exchange thru OWA perfectly. One small problem is, that attachments in inboxed mails cannot be opened (thows setting/firewall error in TB) or downloaded (size is 0 bytes).
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.3.1).Hey hanestuky, thanks for your praise. We've investigated that "attachment is empty" problem and think we found the cause. But I'd like to verify that this was really the cause of your problem. Could you please contact us at owl.support@beonex.com to verify? I have no other way to reach you.
