We have about 15 users and an older server with mail and are looking
to upgrade in the near future and would like to get an idea of what
people are doing in environment similar to ours as well as any
comments you may have.

We have a Novell Netware Small Business Server 5.1 with Groupwise 5.5
and we are using Win2k and WinXp on our desktops with Groupwise for
email at the desktops.

What are you using for your servers? (ie. Windows, Netware, Linux,
etc.)
What are you using for email servers? (ie. Exchange, Groupwise, Notes,
etc.)
What are you using for Email clients? (ie. Outlook, Outlook Express,
Eudora, Groupwise, Notes, etc.)
Are you using any special software for contact management? (Act,
Outlook, Time Matters, Goldmine, etc.)

We have been spoiled by the reliability and stability of our Netware
server for the past several years and have been happy with the
relative immunity Groupwise provides from viruses and spam. Due to
these attributes, we have had to devote minimal time and investment in
supporting this environment. We are now debating going to Exchange
server/Outlook clients but are concerned about the administrative
demand on our staff and the virus and spyware threat that Outlook
seems to bring to the table.

We would be interested in hearing how you have dealt with these
issues.

Thank You
Brad
