Drop-In Replacement For Exchange Now Open Source

[w1z4rd]

"Over 150 man-years of work were added to the Open Source community today when Zarafa decided to put their successful Exchange server replacement under GPLv3. This is not just the typical mail-server-that-works-with-Outlook, it is the whole package including 100% MAPI, web access, tasks, iCal and Activesync. (The native syncing works great with my iPhone!) Binaries and source are available for all major Linux distros."

Oh hello, move over [-]Scaley[/-] ... Scalix! Except don't forget to take a look at their ideas on editions - 3 users for *cough* 'community' (basically enough to test it) - which means that you then buy it ..at 30euro/user for the first year, after which it falls to 6 euro/user from year 2.

Probably not bad pricing, but not a free ride either, if that's what you were hoping for.
