There is one of which I am aware, having used it at a previous employer: Zimbra 
Docs.

It is not widely documented or discussed online, for reasons I don't know. 
Here's a brief review, though:

It worked pretty well in my usage, I'd use it again.

Ben zimbra is proprietary as well now owned by vmware. With my luck on trying 
to start using vmware for virtualization as a start up business they have put 
me off using their products. Would be nice to develop a mail client to add to 
the LO suite.
There appears to be an open source version of Zimbra still: 
http://www.zimbra.com/products/zimbra-open-source.html

Whether it has the same feature set, I'm not sure. As mentioned, the 
documentation on Zimbra Docs is sparse!

I dont know about that, but they have the free zimbra desktop mail client which 
i have tried and am not impressed with.
That client is a different story, and I didn't like it either, but you can use 
any email client you want with the email server.

Regardless, it's the browser-based word processor, spreadsheet and slideshow 
creation tools within the Zimbra self-hosted server application that we're 
talking about here. If you haven't looked at them, I suggest you do. To my 
knowledge, they are the closest thing on the internet to a self-hosted, open 
source equivalent to Google Docs.

Ben i just had a major botched issue with vmware in regards to using esxi to resell services using this virtualization platform. I am apprehensive to try again with them cuz the company is so full of beurocracy it makes it hard for a small business such as mine to buy into their products.
