Well they do not want an exchange box per se, they want exchange features (IE global address in the client, shared calendars, etc - In fact that is all they want. I don't even need the rest.). What I meant by "Exchange Replacement" was one of the linux packages that were an "Exchange Replacement" - such as Scalix, Zimbra, etc. I myself just haven't had much time or success in finding a good calendar server for CentOS (meaning easy to install or update). Nor have I tackled LDAP yet for a GAB (global address book). Just more time restrictions on my part. My intent was to always document it and throw it on the wiki if I ever got one working (either on a toaster box, or separate). Then it could help others like me who want to keep running the toaster but have pressure from the higher level to add more exchange like features.
