Hi All, I am looking for an open source email client package that is equivalent to MS OUTLOOK. Clients are running Windows XP and Vista and Linux. So the package should be able to run on both Windows And Linux. Mail server is running Ms Exchange. So this client pkg should be able to access Global Address book of the MS Exchange Server just as MS OUTLOOK. What about evolution ? Pls see, below URL http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/ Can it do fulfil my requirements? or do you know any other pkg that can fulfil these requirements? -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I don't think there is a OSS solution that runs well on all platforms. Evolution may work for your Linux clients, but I don't think it has full outlook capabilities. Personally I prefer imap - imap works well with a lot of mail clients, including thunderbird, which runs on most platforms. But if you are running exchange for some specific features of exchange - your best bet may be Outlook on Windows and Outlook via CrossOver Office on Linux.

I'm using Evolution as MUA backend is MSExchange.
