ExQuilla for Exchange

I love Thunderbird and was extremely excited about finding ExQuilla as a way to use the Microsoft Exchange Server mandated by my employer and keep my Thunderbird. I want to congratulate the developer for this add-on. About 4 months and 2 versions (Vs 16, 17 and 18) later, I am ready to give up on both Exquilla and Thunderbird. I have a MacBook Pro and run Mac OS 10.7.5. For me, the user experience with ExQuilla has been disappointing: The add-on causes multiple problems with Thunderbird. The add-on suddenly disappears from the Tool menu only to reappear after restart. Messages suddenly can no longer be saved or sent, the search window flickers and search results are not displayed, automatic deposit of sent messages in the local "Sent" folder, and automatic deposit of drafts in the local "Drafts" folder does not work reliably and the entire application tends to crash at least once daily for no apparent reason.
I understand that Kent James still advertises this version as "Beta" and I agree that it is very "beta" indeed. My problem is that I would have been willing to pay $100 for a well functioning add-on, but I am running out of time and out of patience - I am getting used to the idea of abandoning Thunderbird and reluctantly moving on to Outlook...... the only thing worse than having no software, is having buggy software....
