Is there a method of accessing an Exchange server that does not have IMAP or POP3 enabled without Outlook?
It does not appear that Outlook Express supports Exchange (only IMAP and POP3).

The only way I can think of is if the Exchange server has Outlook Web Access (OWA) turned on. You can test this by trying the server name in your browser like so: http://server/exchange.
If you mean programmatically then the recommended way is to use WebDAV (which is what OWA uses).
@Jon I think the method you linked to uses IMAP.
Edit: @Pat: SimpleMAPI is the protocol that allows applications such as Word etc to talk to your email client, not your email client to the server – ExtendedMAPI is needed for that, which Thunderbird doesn’t support.
