++ Not to be biased considering this is a linux mailing list, BUT if you dealing with "outlook" users on your network the best solution "Without" a doubt is exchange, you can hack the linux mail servers as much as you wish, but a combination of Exchange server and Microsoft Small business server is the winner. You can look at all the other alternatives zimbra inclusive but your turn around time can not beat a person who will setup exchange/SBS with groupware which is now the main thing in mail setups. oh and i stand to be corrected on this :). > > > On 6/28/07, Reinier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I have always been quite impressed with egroupware (www.egroupware.org). >> Another alternative is horde (www.horde.org) Both are mysql/php based >> and >> there are even packages of them for some distros. >> >> I am pretty sure, some people will recommend zimbra, (www.zimbra.com) as >> it is >> very hip at the moment. >> >> for moving the mailboxes you could see if the perl script imapsync >> http://directory.fsf.org/imapsync.html is usefull to you.
