Tom was in fact a Bynari employee at one time, although I cannot speak to his 
current situation.  I was involved in the Mainline partnership back about a 
year or so ago when I worked there.

I know of customers back in the Exchange V4-V5 days who ran up against the 
16GB limitations of the JET database engine.  I'm not sure if this has been 
overcome or not, but Bynari definitely takes care of that problem with 
Berkeley DB.  However, the Bynari conversion can get fairly complex if the  
clients make heavy use of delegates and calendaring or some of the other 
special capabilities of OutLook.

Steve Oswald
