Hi,

I wonder, if anyone can recommend a replacement for MS Exchange server.

The challenge is:
Win98 network with Office 2000 (Outlook2000)
NT server (holds documents, runs document management system server)
Linux Internet Gateway (for user smb authentication, firewall, mail, proxy,
http....)


The users want to have:
An office wide address book viewable within Outlook.
Share their calendars from within Outlook.
Share other folders from within Outlook.
No extra of different client programs.


The administrator wants:
Linux based (GPL preferred)
Simple setup (Good doc and RPM desireable)
Low maintainance
Minimal training issues
Provide required functionality


Linux based solutions I have so far:
- HP Openmail (not GPL, seems complicated to set up and maintain)

- MailOne (not GPL, very little documentation. Questionable, if suitable)

- ldap-abook (GPL, sounds promissing, but appears to only do address book)

- Exchange server (Not linux, expensive, but will fulfill most requirements)


What am I looking for?
Suggestions of other packages
Additional information (have you used any of those or others?)
Other recommendations
Any comments.


This seems to develope into a quest for a better exchange server. Can anyone
suggest anything different alltogether?


Regards
Bernhard
