I installed it and played with it - I was impressed. While I personally
can't stand exchange, Openmail worked and the users who trialled the
system couldn't tell the difference between the back ends.
It has some problems in common with exchange - propriatry data storage
formats ect, but as it is on Unix you can script most operations (creating
users ect) and it comes with a fully featured LDAP server ect - I even had
it authenticating web access.
Unfortunately pollitical pressures chose the other product even though
openmail was a fraction of the price.
One downside - no Australian support or training infrastructure.
One upside - I think HP are giving away 50 user licences on Linux.
