I migrated users from Outlook MAPI, to Outlook IMAP against an exchange server in preparation for migrating to Cyrus. For all its flaws Outlook IMAP works better than Outlook MAPI. The only "new" problem was that Outlook IMAP would not "properly" use the Outlook "special" folders like calendar, tasks and contacts when accessed via IMAP. All Microsoft's Contacts, tasks, etc are is specially formated messages. It would be really nice if tbird was able to parse those messages, and use them as contacts, or calendar items. ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
