Interestingly, RPC/HTTPS doesn't use the CAC either. The RPC/HTTP
protocol stack doesn't grok PKI authentication at all, nor will it in
Exchange12, Vista, or Longhorn Server. What's happening under the hood
is NTLMv2 authentication using a hash derived from your randomized
domain password (when you're set to smartcard-required, your password
gets set to a random 127-character string). The NTLMv2 hash is supplied
to you along with your Kerberos tickets at logon, and become part of
your cached credential for use when disconnected.

Fixed in the next version. I have no idea how well it plays with
Entourage, but a couple of people were noting bugs on the MS Exchange 12
TAP list a couple of weeks ago.

Good luck. MS RPC protocols are notoriously undocumented.
