I haven't used IMAP voicemail yet, so you'll have to bear with me here.

Have you tried configuring Asterisk to save voicemail messages on the
Exchange server using IMAP? What was the result?

IMAP support in Exchange, as in Outlook, is rough and rather ugly. For
obvious reasons it's never been in MS interest to support it properly,
as they want people to use their native Exchange server protocol.

There's probably a good reason why you want to do it the way you want
to, but I'll ask the question anyway -- what about delivering the
message over SMTP?
