I used Icewarp in the past, the features were not as good as Exchange.  However 
basically we stopped using it several years ago.  We still have an icewarp 
server but that is for sending out mail from systems.  I found the software 
very stable, in the years we used it we never had any problems with the 
software.  It would also run on pretty much any older computer we had laying 
around so we did not have to purchase a new fast computer just for it.  It does 
work better on Server than desktop software but we have run it on both.

If you don't want to pay the cost of Exchange, what software would you get that 
has pretty much the same functionality as Exchange, including the following:

1)      Active Directory integration

2)      Shared calendars

3)      Reserved meeting rooms (i.e. send a meeting invite to the room email 
address and reserve it.)

4)      Outlook connectivity (most of the ones I've looked at have some sort of 
"plugin" to allow Outlook to connect to them and act like Exchange.)

5)      Fully functional webmail - we want to have the "look and feel" of 
Outlook on the web.

 

The two I'm leaning towards right now are Icewarp and Kerio. I've installed 
Kerio and it's got pretty much the features I want, but I've gotten a 
recommendation from one of our ISP vendors that we look at Icewarp as well. 
Just thought I'd throw this out to see what else I should be looking at.
