I did some more investigating. I used Wireshark to look at the packets my computer
was sending and found that packets are output only immediately after setting up a
new email account. In that case, information is logged into sylpheed.log:

------------------------------------------------------------

[17:19:59] ** warning: Could not establish IMAP connection.
--------------------------------------------------

However, if I click the "Get Mail" button NO packets are sent and NOTHING is 
logged in the log file. In any event none of the 50+ emails Outlook Web App shows
I have in Exchange's Inbox are downloaded.

If I bring up the Account preferences and change settings and click "OK" and then
click the "Get Mail" button NO packets are sent and NOTHING is logged in the
log file.

This seems wrong. Why isn't a login on the Exchange server attempted again?
