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."

      Yes but you forget that the point of slashtopia is not saving money or even doing things better, it is all about not feeding the beast of Redmond.

      After a while this gets somewhat tiresome. Instead of choosing their battles the slashcrew behave like Fox news, making no attempt to hide their bias and mindlessly bashing their opponents for the sake of it.

      If I was running Microsoft I would set up a site like slashdot since the core message of Microsoft is identical to that of Microsoft corporate communications, namely "Microsoft is the only company in this industry that counts for anything".

    If they were Exchange killers then we wouldn't need yet another one.
