I am just using POP3 against the Exchange server with login 
credentials.  Please note that POP3 will need to be enabled in 
Exchange.  While I find it convenient to use Thunderbird for handling 
OpenPGP activities,  it is not a suitable replacement for Outlook for my 
normal daily corporate email and scheduling activity.  Since I don't 
want my messages deleted out of my exchange inbox or automatically 
marked as read by Thunderbird, I also enabled the following options under
Account Settings --> Server Settings:

Fetch headers only
Leave messages on the server

(Other settings may be configured to suite you personal tastes.)

So when I need perform encryption or signature activity, or respond to 
this email thread, I just manually open Thunderbird, manually retrieve 
the message headers, and manually download the message I want to respond to.

I realize that this is a bit of a kludge, but so far it's my best option.
