Title: SME Server & Microsoft Outlook
Post by: PhilV on July 16, 2004, 11:31:21 AM

What is the best way to get full integration between SME and Outlook?

We are wanting to use the full capabilities of Outlook if possible, such as the calender, and meeting / appointments etc.

How is best to do this?

Prompt replies are appreciated, as there is a sense of urgency to this :)

Thanks,

Phil

You'll need to look at using OpenExchange - see here:

This won't run on an SME, however...

The Cyrus Imap & Toltec connector as mentioned above works pretty good their is some limitations with imap vs. mapi as in MS. Exchange server, I currently have the cyrus imap & Toltec connector running on two production sme 6.0.1 servers. Scalix www.scalix.com is a free 15 user mapi package that I have installed on a stock Redhat 7.3 box and it rocks! almost a direct replacement for MS Exchange however Scalix package requires sendmail and Xwindows running and I have been unable to get it to work with sme server.
