RE: HP OpenMail

Jon,

We use Linux as the backend for our Outlook clients. We currently have about
2000-2300 accounts on several servers. We do not use OpenMail, however. I
wrote a paper on it a while back http://linuxtoday.com/stories/11031.html.
Things have changed a bit since then, but if you're interested in more
information, let me know. If you have to have shared folders of the
non-email variety, our system does it, but it is the weakest point of the
whole solution, relying on the Net Folders capability of Outlook. It does,
however, support free/busy scheduling very nicely.
