I assume that what you are looking for is for individual calendars just like in Outlook. There are several extensions for Joomla that do calendar functions, but are geared toward organization announcements. They're not the personal calendar you see in Outlook. How about Zimbra which I think Yahoo bought last year. There might be a concern about its long term existence since M$ was waltzing around the prospect of buying Yahoo. Zimbra doesn't tie into Joomla at all, but may be what you are looking for if you want an exchange replacement. I believe Zimbra runs on the LAMP stack There's also ClarkConnect, which is a standalone server. From what I understand, it also serves as a files server (CIFS/SMB). I haven't had chance to evaluate it yet, but it's sitting on the bench waiting its turn. Mark _______________________________________________ New York PHP SIG: Joomla!
