This isn't a useful answer but I've also been struggling to look at the EWS API over the last couple of weeks, with no success.

There's a hack you can find that explains how to "re-class" these but I've not got it working yet; in addition, the DnsClient references some namespaces that jarsearches only return for rt.jar - the main runtime. And including this in an Android app would just be crazy!

Before finding the API I was trying to use KSOAP to communicate with EWS but again ran into problems - you need to be able to do NTLM and SSL and I couldn't find any way of combining all these with KSOAP in any simple way.

The EWS API looks the way to go (why re-invent the wheel) but getting it working on Android looks very tricky (if not impossible)
