Sunbird and Lightning (Sunbird is a stand-alone calendar, Lightning
integrates with Thunderbird, rather like Outlook) are rapidly catching up
with Outlook. All that's lacking is the journalling function - Kontact from
KDE has journalling function as well. Both Kontact and the two Mozilla
calendars have two functions that Outlook does NOT have - 1) the ability to
EMAIL a calendar or task reminder, and 2) the ability to access shared
calendars on a website, in ics format.
IHMO Thunderbird with either of the two calendar utilities or Kontact from
KDE are certainly more than adequate for small enterprises that don't need
the complexities of Exchange server....
