Even though the functionality re calendering, group schedule manegement (and tons more functions well outside of the darkside capabilities) was all there... it didnt look like the stuff other execs were using... cant it sync with my PDA (some can) ... why do I need to go to a web site and go through that login stuff (ever heard of security? and you gotta do this in a different fashion with micro$lop anyway) > I'm sorry to hear that.

We also ran 200+ users in several states via WAN on the Cyrus IMAP server with various MUA's from FreeBSD and the Outlook clients... With 698 days of uptime too... (had to move the server to a new building and nobody but me could see the point of moving it still attached to its UPS... luddites) > Lou -- Murray Taylor --------------------------------------------------------------- The information transmitted in this e-mail is for the exclusive use of the intended addressee and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
