General Software Discussion / Re: Novell Groupwise is such a lame program

You can use the Outllook Client against the GroupWise backend, if you feel secure with your microsoft patches.    MS has resolved most of those issues, but there are still vulnerabilities.   Also, with GroupWise 7, there's a feature called the OutLook Connector which is a much more full-featured client against GroupWise than what you get in 6.5.

Good luck.   If your admin has questions, tell him to contact me.

If you'd been using Outlook you would have been slammed by every major security issue that Microsoft has had for the last 5-7 years.   You wouldn't be whistlin Outlook's tune.     And besides, you're using 6.5.   The latest 7 client is way better and the next release, called Bonsai, has even more functionality and features.   Latest & greatest technology seems to be spelled U-N-S-T-A-B-L-E.    With lots of Fortune 5 companies and large organizations using GroupWise, they want something stable more than they want all the latest bells & whistles.
