Dear Colleagues,
There is an office where the standard desktop OS is Manjaro (a

I don't very much like Manjaro's packaging system and its lack of many

There are question always asked which will always have same answer [e.g.

Hi,
If that is what you need, then you should checkout SOGo, it works with
the components you've described below, and adds ActiveSync to the mix.

You could then decide to drop squirrelmail, or simply continue using
that as well for email.

It is also *incompatible* with the GPL, which means
