He is actually looking for groupware ***backends*** as I recall, not
strictly e-mail.
For email there is sendmail+cyrus-map, the ultimate solution. But it
doesn't do anything for calendering, etc....
And there are lots of groupware front ends (moregroupware.org,
phpgroupware.org, etc....) but those don't support groupware ***clients***
like Outlook, etc...
He specifically wants a back-end, and Exchange killer.
Commercial ones exist, such as Samsung Connect and Bynari, but nothing
(AFIAK) from the Open Source community.
PHP Groupware has theoretically developed an XML-RPC API that could serve
as the basis for a backend, and this is what the OO people are looking at
the most. But currently that is vapor ware.
