Client Side Support for NTLM   

Hi

                  I have been trying to read my mails from Microsoft 
Exchange Server by using java library developed by Various Software Products 
like Mousetrap,Icemail,Jscape,JavaMail, and IPWorks.

                  On our server side we are having  "Secure Password 
Authentication" in order to encode and decode mails,  So we need to use the 
same Authorisation Mechanism on Client Side so that we can read mails from 
the Exchange Server.

 ( As Server Side Autherisation Mechanism should match with Client Side 
Autherisation Mechansim to read mails from Exchange Server)

                On Client Side, I have tried using the software products 
that i specified above. All the above listed products are supporting 
CRAMMD5,PLAIN,LOGIN,DIGEST-MD5 Autherisation Mechanisms But,  No one are 
supporting NTLM Autherisation.

              As we have NTLM autherisation mechanism set on the server 
side, so i need to use the same Autherisation mechanism on client side too.

          The current Exchange server version we are using is " 
5.5.2654.50". I have also tried installing the Evaluation version of 
Microsoft Exchange server 2003 and checked whether it supports any other 
authentication other than NTLM. I found that, it is allowing me to use either 
"Clear Text" or "NTLM".

               could anyone help me in providing any Software Product (Java 
Library)  that supports "NTLM Autherisation" to read mails from Exchange 
Server.

Protocol that we are using - IMAP

I will be greatful if anyone can help me in this

thanks
