Well, that was interesting!  The openssl command got me the “* OK The
Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 service is ready.” response I expected, but the
login request wasn’t even seen as a complete request until I appended
the -crlf option to the openssl command as suggested here:

  
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8682976/imap-connection-carriage-return-line-feed-issue-from-linux

And then the response to the login request was “login BAD Command
Error. 12”.  Not sure what that means.  As I said earlier in the thread,
my credentials get accepted by Exchange Server when submitted from my
iPhone.

I wonder, though, if the -crlf openssl option could be a clue to why vm
and Exchange aren’t happy with each other.  Is vm sending linefeeds only?
