Sorry to have taken solong to reply...
Jim,
So in the evaluation that you performed for your school district what
were the criteria that involved you keeping the Kerio MailServer?
I havent looked at Kerio yet but does that include the calender
function? Thats the biggie here and why its so hard to get these folks to
even consider being weanned off of Outlook.

I just performed an evaluation for my school district, looking at Kerio
MailServer (the incumbent and winner), MS Exchange, CommuniGate, Gordano,
Zimbra Collaboration Suite, OpenXchange and one other. I've also used
GroupWise, which is pretty good. Our issues were performance, client
hardware requirements, integration with PDAs and support for the many
Apple
machines in use. Straight Outlook integration is easy with most of these,
and Kerio MailServer 6.2 works well, is cheap, supports many OS's. Kerio
has a few problems, but its cheapness overcomes them. Hope this helps!
Regards, Jim
