Yet Another Exchange Killer?

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."

    why don't you people stop making like you're being forced to buy more from Microsoft? The only real taxes are those collected by the government with guns to back them up.

    Microsoft doesn't come close to this.

    Of course so far it aint happening but like President Bush has tought the nation just repeat
    your lies long enough and some people believe that they are the truth.

    Its a drop in replacement, with groupware featured supplied by a different third party
    seperate from email.

    So far I have not seen any mention in this product of automatic migrating of all user content?

    Im my opinion a 'drop in' replacement would have the ability to migrate all user content from existing infrastructure into the new infrastructure.

    What this is a dang expensive hodge podge of
    technology, whos features, can somewhat match what Exchange has but not with the same integration and user interface tools .

    In the article I read earlier they basically even admit that yes you can probably cobble together this stuff yourself a lot cheaper.

    So instead of going with Exhcange, and not have to have a painfull transistion, retraining your thousands of users, etc, you go out pay half or a bit more than for upgrading Exchange, sell your soul to a version 1.0, dont know if we will survive solution, which will probably not feature any migration possiblities, if in fact there is no version 2.0

    Either go full opensource, or just choose one of the established players in this field, at least if you have a sizeable number of users.

    I like OpenMail and any and all non-OpenMail users should be killed and thrown into the ovens, into the schpizers, into the boiler of the Lusitania and burned to death.

    OpenMail is the answer OpenMail will protect you from the terrible secret of Oven.

    Open Exchange is a piece of OpenSource shit. I like OpenSource, and regularly use FreeBSD (aka god). I am forced to use Linus' buttfuck shit pile called Linux which only works through not Linus' efforts but through hard workers who still have to send commits to Lord Linus the Whipworm infected Ass Sore who is the master of no unit testing and unbuildable shit and the master of FUCKING OVER RMS and having gay sex with Larry McDeath McVoy who STOLE sun Team Ware and turned it into bitkeeper, and I do not condemn all OpenSource people to die in the ovens and be sprayed with Zyklon B, particularly BSD license users, to Over to DIE. I do order all the people who make the Linux kernel code broken and ugly into the oven to die, and I order Larry McVoy into the oven to die. I order all Mac Zealots into the ovens to die. I order IDE zealots into the oven to die. Anyways, SuSE is fucking crap. Not as bad as Eugenia Loli fucking fat Greek Pork bitch bad, but close. Like Eugenia Loli ass sweat bad. SuSE sucks. Its crap. Yast is CLOSED SOURCE, and it sucks shit. YAST2 SUCKS DICK. Exchange server is crap, but Microsoft earned their monopoly because Unix vendors like HP Betrayed UNIX! HP sells Exchange server now. I put them in the schpizer. And I hate what Samsung did to OpenMail. Its some stupid gook yellow slant mother fuckers ruined it.

    You see, you OpenSource fucks don't understand non-atomicity. Not every program has to be as tiny as possible and do as little as possible to increase extensibility and script-ability and to over use the pipe all the time. Not when competing with Microsoft Exchange, it can NOT be that fucking way! I also hate Open Source fucks for not targeting the inferior but widely used Windows as a valid port. Look, everyone already knows everything can be compiled under Linux and FreeBSD, but you sloppy motherfuckers suck at porting to Windows. I hate the maker of everybuddy for not making available Win32 shit. now by percentage no one uses it and instead they use that piece of shit Trillian. Fuck you Everyfaggot project for not porting to the place where you are needed the most.

    You think anyone is fooled SuSE? You are dumb mother fuckers. You scrapped together some barely working shit that any teenager could concoct. And you call it an Exchange killer. If Notes, OpenMail Bynari and GroupWise can't make Windows fucking Zealots stop using Excrement server, what in the flying fuck do you think you are going to do? You are going to have working everything over MAPI? You will be able to connect to other Exchange servers? You said Samba/NT 4.0 PDC, YOU FUCKING failed. Exchange 5.5 and Windows Directory Services 4.0 are deprecated you fucking fucks. Try killing Microsoft with a real blow to the balls. Drive Outlook 2002 with working EVERYTHING over native MAPI and have the ability to become part of a gay-domain forest.

    Look, if you stupid fucks cant do that, then don't do it at all, fucking idiots. I will spread your schpizer ashes on my garden. Death. You piece of shit strange recipe fuckers. 13 year old Slackware kiddies could cobble that piece of shit together and say its an Exchange killer. This is why Microsoft has supremacy in the Office app, Joe Luser's Office Computer and Joe Lusers's home computer. You think your stupid Green Crayola drawn fag lizard, your stupid pile of script kiddy crap cobbled together from components with NO special sauce to speak of can beat Exchange 5.5? And not even try for Exchange 6/2000. Look.

    OpenMail was the only serious attempt at a real unified solution to defeating Exchange. And Carly Death to that CUNT Fiorina threw it in the trash, death to her black soul I want to put a hot curling iron in her pussy and cauterize it.

    I am honored to have served OpenMail to people before that snake bitch fucked it. I think this SuSE shit is fucking crap. It wont work. SuSE fucking SUCKS. They are the worst distro. I tolerate RedHat, and 8.0 is slow and shitty. I hate RedHat because they back port patches (that don't work), and use horrible changelogs and specfiles, and they make broken compilers, and they use patches on new kernels designed for ancient kernels. But I tolerate them. However, Gentoo, Turbo, SuSE, WomanDrake, and all the others, what a piece of caramelized shit these are. Fuck them. And Immunix sucks. Fuck them.

    So will Open Exchange work? No. Will it work native MAPI? No. Will it drive Outlook 97,98,2000,Entourage, Mac Outlook, 2002/XP on OS X, OS 9,8, Windows 9X, Windows NT 4,5. Will it? No. Well sorry, fucking SuSE. We already have shit that works for EVERYTHING ELSE, and it sucks shit. I'd rather try GroupWise than to give Suck SuSE my money. FUCK YOU SuSE FUCK YOU. We already have Mozilla and IMAP. FUCKING RETARTDS. And people using Unix don't need collaboration crap and fag calendars.

    SuSE continues, from the country where my ovens are kept cold. They need to be fired up, so I can STUFF you fucking Green Lizard fuckers in them and burn you away into ash.

    RMS is right. McVoy is a fucking Team Ware intellectual property thief. Linus likes to cobble together shitty broken sloppy kernels. RedHat are obsessed with upping versions numbers for FUCKING gay things, but then like Debian, which sucks cock and DEATH to Fag Ian Murdoch, they obsess about suppressing versions numbers for really important things. SuSE is awful. Gentoo is the right idea but its implemented like shit, and it's a far far cry from FreeBSD. RMS is right about the GPL. BSD license is also acceptable. Linus and RedHat owe everything to RMS and then they treat him like shit.

    So I will not put FreeBSD or RMS in the ovens to die. I will also spare Alan Cox is he promises to stop hacking drivers for gay shit old hardware. I will spare Open Mail from the over of death.
