Your sysadmin needs to be willing to run the Exchange IMAP server and an
SMTP server for outgoing mail.  S/he can give you the server name.  (It
would probably be the same server as Exchange, but might not be.)  Then
just create an IMAP account in whatever mail client you prefer, using
those as the servers.  Mail clients usually have account creation
wizards that lead you through the configuration.
