I do .NET too. I close my eyes and pretend it's MONO code.

Kontact supposedly has Exchange support. Never tried it, but it's there.

As a rule, I never trust a webmail application to be secure. That said,
FireGPG actually looks decent. It doesn't do any actual encryption or
decryption itself. You actually need GnuPG installed to do the heavy
lifting. FireGPG seems to just detect when you're using Gmail and use
GnuPG on the right blocks.
