Mail: Use a standard IMAP server. BTW: Pop3 should be sufficient in most cases.
Scheduling: Set up a FTP server where on which the users can exchange their Free/Busy data.
Public Folders: Someone ever heard of an Intranet or News servers?
Out of office: OK, that's harder to realize. Create a web interface that writes a message on their UNIX-Email accounts and uses vacancy.
OK, this requires the users to do some more configuration tasks on their clients (setup LDAP, MAIL and FTP), but despite this: Which features are you missing?
Its enterprise computing division is getting hammered by Sun and IBM...
Sorry, but this is simply not true. A lot of ISPs are replacing Sun Solaris with HP-UX. Example: amazon.com
Marketshares of IBM AIX are not worth mentioning.

HP Ending OpenMail

Of course they do! Ever heard, that HP-UX 11i will use Ximian Gnome (former Helix Gnome) as standard desktop? By doing this, they might have a very nice desktop on a commercial UNIX Workstation much sooner than Solaris or AIX.
Once upon a time, I disliked FPS games, because of the dumb violence. I've played adventures and strategy games. They were great and they still are. This was while I was a student.
Now I spend all of my day in a firm as software developer. I come home late and have several other more important stuff to do than playing (and in addition I'm married now). This means, I don't have the time to spend hours on one game as it is necessary for playing strategy or adventure games as I don't have the time to read a novel anymore. When I have got some time left, it's just some minutes. In very rare occasions more than an hour, never more than two hours.
Formerly I spend up to three hours on just one game of Command&Conquer or up to 12 hours on an adventure.
Today I cannot afford spending such a long period of time on a game. When I play, the game has to be ended quickly. Solitaire games and Tetris got to boring. The only exciting games that are left are FPSs and Racing Games.
So, for me it's more a question of time than a question of violence. I would appreciate a FPS like game without violence, but there aren't any.
Heise online just reported that CMG withdraws the lawsuits (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/ps-04.08.00-0 00/).
Yesterday it was reported that all firms offering SAMBA support are affected. However today it seems like, there was just one firm, Göttinger Service Network GmbH, that received an 'Abmahnung'. This morning this firm received a message from CMG in which they told them, that they don't continue the lawsuit and that CMG would like a solution without lawyers.
However this doesn't mean that it's over. It's just that they don't want to talk through expensive lawyers.
It isn't true that Microsoft always get away with it. Some months ago there was a lawsuit against Explorer. The cowards from Microsoft pays a fee to use 'Windows Explorer' to the owner of the trademark, Symicron, who has a very outdated DOS program running under that name.
Samba isn't the only name that conflicts with a registered trademark in Germany.
So far there were lawsuits against websites using the words 'webspace', 'explorer' and so on. 'Explorer' was the most extreme case. Even Microsoft pays for using Explorer in Windows Explorer. Websites using the names FTP Explorer, Explore2FS and so on were already sued.
But it continues. A guy named Volker Jungbluth has registered 'ASP', 'Site Promotion', 'Webchannel', 'Uni Guide', 'Medica', 'Pressemailer', 'Flirtline', and many more. It is expected, that the only reason he did that, was to gain money from lawsuits. Read the German article from heise on http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/axv-03.08.00-0 01/.

BTW: The firm who sues Samba is called CMG. Take your GIMPs and exchange C with G. Now what does this look like? And then, CMG uses a standard SuSE distribution for their website: http://www.cmg.de/cgi-bin/test.pl

This will rock! See http://www.ximian.org/newsitems/hp-partnership.php 3 for more info.
In the company I work for we have a firewall that frequently causes problems with public ftp servers. No problems with http.
My ideas:
- Cover opponents with mud. The more mud they covered with, the less they are able to see. To regain full visibility you have to take a shower.
- A FPS like a Tom&Jerry Comic. Fight with Hamers. Victims will be deformed for a while and irritated.
Maybe someone has better ideas?Once upon a time, I disliked FPS games, because of the dumb violence. I've played adventures and strategy games. They were great and they still are. This was while I was a student.

Careful, SAS is already the name of a international firm.
Oh, and Symicron has even a trademark on Klick.
