MS exchange alternatives for FreeBSD

Hi list,

I have server running postfix + courier-imap, and I'm
looking for 
someway to add possibility to exchange
calendars/contacts/meeting 
invitations/etc between mail clients.

Can someone recommend calendar, that is compatible with
windows clients 
and can be run under FreeBSD?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Please CC me on reply as I'm not subscribed to
-questions.

% cat /usr/ports/deskutils/sunbird/pkg-descr
The Sunbird Project is a redesign of the Mozilla Calendar
component. The goal
is to produce a cross platform standalone calendar
application based on
Mozilla's XUL user interface language.

WWW:    http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird.html

I like it  
But I'm not sure if you can exchange your inputs with other
clients.

I think you can exchange mozilla's (sunbird/lightning)
calendar using MS 
exchange, zimbra and few other apps, but all that I found
are not 
working under freebsd.
And this is what I'm looking for - server that support iCal
and will 
allow mail clients (outlook, evolution &
sunbird/lighnting) to exchange 
their calendars.

I don't know whether it works on FBSD, but http://www.openchange.org/
 looks promising

Well doing this, before... research wise Hula from Suse, now
open source,
and a work in progress or SugarCRM/Vtiger (Sugar fork) Ive
heard of
OpenExchange running but it requires work and research.

Hello Cheffo,
I wanted to do what you asked and after a lot of research I
was able to 
achieve this by installing on the FreeBSD server openldap
for the email 
addresses and a WEBDAV folder in Apache for the calendar.
My setup has my email address in the ldap server and these
addresses can 
be accessed by Outlook and Thunderbird.
I use Sunbird as the calendar and publish the calendar to
the webdav folder.

The ldap server can be maintained by phpldapadmin 
http://phpldapad
min.sourceforge.net/

This setup allows all users to have access to a common email
address 
book and a common calendar.

The only thing I was unable to do was setup an imap server
to allow 
access to Common emails.

I am interested in being able to set up an imap server.

Regards,
Ivan

WebCalendar (*webcalendar*.sourceforge.net) can do the job
of shared
schedule for iCal compatible clients.... The problem is that
M$ Outlook is
not compatible with the standard... :-( Last time I'm
looked, some
opensource plugins could be used for partial compatibility
of Outlook with
iCal.

While I don't have this kind of setup myself, I usually see
either
Cyrus or Dovecot mentioned for IMAP on the Postfix list as
being one
of the better choices.
