Subject: [Skunkworks] Mail & Calendaring System on Suse
Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 11:22:14 +0300

Hey skunk[ettes],

I hope you all are doing great. Now, a friend sent me the table below. He needs a mail and calendaring solution meeting the stipulated requirements. He would like to go the zimbra way, but I'm not sure if the open source edition meets the requirements. is there an alternative that you can prolly suggest?

Thanks,

Me
