that fully supports the MS Exchange functionalities? Either get Ximian
Connector or CrossOver Office from www.codeweavers.com

Also, you won't be able to use Functional Mailboxes (shared folders)
from exchange w/o the use of MS Products.

>i would appreciate your high regards on this posting.  thank you.

Codeweavers.com offers a 30-day demo of CrossOver Office.  Get it
and try it.  If it suits your need and you like to use
it, well, you need to buy it.

MS Office 2000 works great on it (Outlook, Word and Excel).
