Not that I have any religious scruples about using Microsoft products, and in our case, the whole of the internal network is NT, protected from the outside world by FreeBSD and Sun Solaris and with certain Internet related server functions (dns, smtp) also on the UNIX battlements. However, I can see that a network based on UNIX servers would find it a little OTT to install one NT machine, with the consequent learning threshold, just for certain functionality. What's the problem with using tasks? Tasks, as far as I can see, is a client function contained in Outlook, and nothing to do with the server. I can find no reference in the Exchange Server help file or Books Online referring to tasks as a server-based function. mvh/regards James > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Windsor Match Plate and Tool Ltd. > To: > Sent: Monday, January 10, 2000 3:51 PM > Subject: M$ Exchange Server Support > > > > Does anyone out there know of an emulator, or software package to run on a > > FreeBSD box that will allow us to use M$ Exchange Server's "Tasks". > > We are currently using M$ Outlook '97/2000 as a POP3 email client to a > > FreeBSD box, we would like to utilize M$'s "tasks" option, but surely > don't > > want to require Windows NT Server.
