Re: FW: Google Compete: Why Serena Software is Going with BPOS, A Customer Story

What I get from this is that either Mr. Brister doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or has been handicapped by management, or both. This is in line with my experience with his company as an IT guy supporting the engineers who used Serena software. I expect we'll see a job posting soon at Seren

RE: Issue with Query Based Distribution list

Hmmm... I told our smtp gateway not to advertise 8bit mime capability. I also tried setting the Exchange smtp connector to use EHLO which should have made it use 7bitmime as the gateway would say it didn't do 8bit. No dice though still. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:mich...@smithcons.com] Sen

Re: Google Compete: Why Serena Software is Going with BPOS, A Customer Story

I think our org. is much like many other companies. We have some technically skilled people who need higher end tools and interact with other companies/orgs. that use the same subset of tools.

Pretty funny, I bet Serena Software has a lot of "smart" computer savvy users, substantial in-house staff with I.T. experience AND CRUCIALLY, users with high expectations for complex features. I hope the person who recommended Google Apps did get fired ;) Here's something on the flip side though
