Yet Another Exchange Killer?

Posted by michael on from the optimism-springs-eternal dept.

jmertic writes "SuSE Linux now has the latest Exchange killer, but this time for Exchange Server. Openexchange Server is designed to be a drop in replacement for Exchange 5.5 users who don't want to pay the MS tax of going to Exchange 2000. They say it will be available mid November."

    Charles Cooper's opinion on Kapor's plan goes straight into non-related issues, no supporting facts for his arguement, and a personal attack on Kapor.

    Fuck off and die, Open Sores bitch.


    Wouldn't these open sores you talk about require sexual contact of some sort? Yeah like anyone who visits Slashdot has had that happen.

    But have you tried to open any doc files from someone that has "upgraded" to Office 2000? Almost impossible unless that person has the sense-of-mind to save it in the old 97 Office format..........

    You are 1000% incorrect. Office 97 is compatible with Office 2000 is compatible with office XP (2002).

    You're thinking of OFFICE 95, which is long forgotten and no one has used since 1996.

    No way! Some OTHER guy with the name "The Turd Report" is posting messages with the username "The Turd Report?!?"

    Thanks for clearing that up!
