New Scalix open source groupware is competition for Microsoft Exchange
08-19-2008 08:00 AM
Scalix collaboration platform, with its latest release version 11.4, aims to be a good alternative to Microsoft Exchange. Based on the HP OpenMail platform, discontinued by Hewlett-Packard in 2001, it has been further developed by Scalix and now acts as an enterprise email and group calendar server with the option of integrating systems like ERP, CRM, and billing into the Scalix system using its open API. It is compatible with most LDAP authentication mechanisms, such as those in Windows Active Directory, Novell eDirectory, and Red Hat Directory Server. The most prominent feature of Scalix is its Exchange compatibility; you can use an Outlook client to access the Scalix platform. Scalix also provides an AJAX-based client that is nearly identical to Microsoft Exchange Outlook Web Access (OWA). Aside from Outlook compatibility, Scalix also claims to coexist peacefully with other existing Exchange email systems.

EXCHANGE2MBOX(1)					     OpenChange Users' Manual						  EXCHANGE2MBOX(1)

NAME

       exchange2mbox - Convert Exchange mailbox to mbox file

SYNOPSIS

       exchange2mbox [-?|--help] [--usage] [-f|--database PATH] [-p|--profile PROFILE]
	   [-P|--password PASSWORD] [-m|--mbox FILENAME] [-u|--update]
	   [-d|--debuglevel LEVEL] [--dump-data]

DESCRIPTION

       exchange2mbox  provides	a  way	to  synchronize an Exchange mailbox with a mbox file. The tool is developed so it only retrieves mails not
       already stored in the message ID index database and reflects changes back to the Exchange server if the local message copy are deleted.

OPTIONS

       --database

       -f     Set the path to the profile database to use

       --profile

       -p     Set the profile to use. If no profile is specified, exchange2mbox try to retrieve the default profile in the database. If no default
	      profile has been set, exchange2mbox returns MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND .

       --password

       -P     Set the password for the profile to use. This can be omitted if the password is stored in the profile.

       --mbox

       -m     Set the mbox file full path

       --update

       -u     Synchronize the local mbox file with the remote Exchange server mailbox.

       --dump-data
	      Dump the hex data. This is only required for debugging or educational purposes.

       --debuglevel LEVEL

       -d     Set the debug level.

EXAMPLES

       Create/Update the mbox file and indexes within the profile database:
       exchange2mbox

       Update the Exchange mailbox and indexes according to the changes made to the mbox file.

       exchange2mbox -u

REMARKS

       If  no  mbox file is specified, one will be automatically created in $(HOME)/.openchange/mbox .	If you are using the default profile data-
       base path and have set a default profile (using mapiprofile --profile=profile_name -S ) you do not need to specify these parameters on  the
       command line.
