Expert: New OS e-mail client coming, but Outlook remains strong

Expert: New OS e-mail client coming, but Outlook remains strong "A new open source e-mail client, code-named Chandler, could give Microsoft Outlook a run for its money, according to Julie Hanna Farris, SearchEnterpriseLinux.com's resident messaging expert. Right now, however, users are finding that it's easier to dump Exchange on the server than Outlook on the client. In this interview, Farris discusses Chandler's and Sendmail's possibilities and why breaking up with Outlook is hard to do. Farris is founder of alternative messaging system provider Scalix Corp., of San Mateo, Calif."

Scalix is definitely one to watch.
