Is there a dev project ongoing to create this functionality? If there isn't, maybe we should attempt something. If I remember, outlook/exchange makes use of RPC over the SMB/NetBIOS ports (137,138,139). Or better yet even, start the creation of an open calendar protocol if one doesn't exist. We already have POP/SMTP/IMAP and these all work perfectly fine, network stored contacts and calendars shouldn't be all that much harder than these..... -----Original Message----- From: tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org [mailto:tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Kelly Black Sent: Saturday, June 22, 2002 9:41 PM To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: Re: [TCLUG] Linux email server question Importance: High On Saturday 22 June 2002 19:55, Ryan Ware wrote: > Not sure if Lotus Notes or Domino is available on Linux or not. > Other than that, or someone mentioned Samsung's Open Mail there is > nothing on *nix that stacks up against Exchange.

What alternatives have you tried? What did you not like about them that after having a simple exchange (no pun intended) with the developers that they refused to add to the application. I have found that most of the project developers I have talked with have been highly responsive to suggestions, and would like to know your experiences with the same. Open source software is not developed in a vacuum. It needs input from users in the field using the software in order to improve. You don't have to be a developer to help improve a project.
