Welcome to IWETHEY!

New OK.
Not having used GroupWise serverside since 5.0, I can't speak to the current functionality.

I do know that the client STILL sucks all holy arse, though. Had to use it for a week (one of our offices is a NetWare/GroupWise shop) and it was painful. I've never been glad to go back to Outlook before or since. The only thing I've ever met that sucks more is the Notes client.

GroupWise always was nicer at the server end. But with a client like that...

Anyway, none of this helps Andrew. His client has Exchange 2003, and is almost certainly unwilling to junk that investment (it ain't cheap).

New You can use Lookout as a Groupwise client now.
So you can get the best of both worlds that way.

Nearly all functionality too. Indexed Text searching in the Doc-Lib doesn;t work right now and a few other nits like that.

Diary and Calendaring, resource scheduling etc... all works.

New Isn't there a server-side 'connector'
That allows Exchange to use a standard imap server for Outlook clients? IIRC (and I might be wrong) I stumbled over a project that does this when I was looking at the Ximian connector for evolution...

  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

A colonoscopy, while eerily similar, is probably better than politics.
