Completely agree. I am in the exact same situation. I need/want to follow
Linux development, but my corporate desktop is MS, Outlook etc.
What's wrong with that ? (my development systems are not connected to
anything else but our internal network.)

Basically, I use a hotmail and Outlook Express to help me SORT messages
on LKML. It makes it MUCH easier for me to find the messages I want to
read vs the rest of the noise that I don't understand yet.
One thing is certain: It is impossible to have a collection of geeks
this large, and not have some of them display the sort of egotistical
attitude that makes them go "Oh, he's using OE? Well, I shall thumb my
nose in his general direction! We should only allow
<Pine|Mutt|Emacs|Other> on this list. Sniff. Sniff.".
Just ignore it. I do. I learn more and more from this list everyday,
and if someone doesn't want to read what I have to say because of the
software I use to read the list, then I guess I'm not all that
interested in them reading it anyway. :-)

Sick? No.
As much as we dislike M$'s marketing practices, one has to admit that
they DO come up with some GOOD solutions to problems, they just bundle
them into BAD implementations that are non-free.
As I said earlier, the problem isn't hotmail - the problem is attitudes
like yours.

Hi William Scott Lockwood III,
In your mails, you use outlook and hotmail together.
This is a mistake.
Outlook is a "not so bad idea" but which comes with a collection of
security holes. Eudora is definetly a better choice.
Hotmail is a http-based mail owned by microsoft. And all contents which go
in it become potential Microsoft content (there's a kind of implicit
copyright transfert between you end Microsoft).
You should read carrefully what you have (implicitly perhaps) signed.
You should avoid Hotmail. This is not related to M$ against Linux but to
your rights (to access and only you to your data) against M$ profits. From
the Microsoft point of view, Hotmail License is an improvment over the way
they lock their clients by using proprietary (embraced-and-extanded)
protocols and standarts.
Hotmail was the first site to use Microsoft Passport, which is the a draft
of .Net. If you accept Hotmail today you will accept the worst of .Net
tomorrow.
btw You said that Microsoft comes with good solutions.
This view (linux is not user friendly) is partly wrong because what is said
to be not user friendly is caused by people not accepting differences.
M$ users are scared by what we call the unix-way.
To conclude and I will stop following this thread, I'm against adding IQ
test in the lkml subscribe process.
Christophe
PS: I don't remember the name but there is a unix tool that provide
everything for MsExchange sharing facilities.

Think what you like.
No matter what a shrink wrap (or Click-Wrap) agreement states, license
agreements can not, and do not invalidate my rights (and my copyright)
to what I write myself. Not in the country anyway.
The problem is a combination of over zealousness and bigotry. Period.
Use what you like, please allow me to do the same.

You struck a chord here. I am forced to use Exchange here at work for my company e-mail (which would be pallen@akamai.com). I much prefer to use any Linux/UNIX
(I have a solaris box here as well) mail client and say off of Outhouse/Windows.

HP Openmail was essentially a drop-in replacement
for MS exchange, but ran on Unix, including Linux.
Incredibly, as the HP engineers I know have related,
HP accepted a deal from microsoft that required them
to dump Openmail and go to ms exchange, so the HP
management "knifed the baby" and killed off a really
nice product.
Last I heard, Openmail is still available, but deprecated.
There was talk that microsoft would kill any attempt to sell
Openmail to a 3rd party, since the idea is to eliminate
alternatives to exchange.
Sadly,
jjs

HP will continue to support OpemMail for at least five more years. Please,
recommend it to your employers. If they get a significant income from
people who take up OpenMail, it will wake up people at HP.
It would be nice if HP stuck it to M$ up the arse by releasing it as open
source when the five years' are up.

I was thinking about a news in LWN.
I've made a search on it and finally found the news :
http://lwn.net/2000/0427/devel.phtml#devel
Browsers and Mail support
TradeClient 0.2beta released. Bynari International has announced the final
pre-release of its TradeClient email client and personal information
manager. Tradeclient is aimed at people accustomed to or currently using
Microsoft Exchange. TradeClient is released under the LGPL. Note that a
proprietary product, Bynari TradeXCH, is required in order to connect
Tradeclient to Microsoft Exchange.
Apparently the project is now open source and hosted by sourceforge:
http://tradeclient.sourceforge.net/
I'm not sure that it was not a PR "à la Microsoft".
Friendly,
Christophe

you could allways try and get them tu turn on the
pop3 port in exchange. this allows you to use any
standard pop3 client to get your mail. but no
scheduling, calendar, etc.

well, evolution 11.99 will "theoretically" import exchange calendar
appointments
and stick them into your calendar. this works almost every other time
:)
and I use a perl based script that queries the global address book
called pabber.
I have not found something that will interact smoothly with the server
based
personal address book or calendar. so, if anyone knows of such a
program, please, please,
please let the world know (or at least me :)

The best thing I can recommend is syncml (http://www.syncml.org). I heard
their are syncml plugins avaliable since people want to have all their
exchange functionality on their cell phones.

Is too silly to speak about what you most likely did not see at all. All
security BUGS can be fixed checking "more restricted". If it configured
correctly all should be ok.
I use Outlook and I have never been infected with any email virus because of
it.
