Jon,

At the risk of receiving flames galore, Outlook and Exchange?

Client would be Outlook 2000/2002 (or web browser, or POP3 client, or IMAP
client). Exchange 2000 would be the server. You could use the iSeries as a
SMTP gateway if you wanted to, but I don't see any reason to.

Mail replication is terrific w/offline folders and synchronization. Remote
access exists with Outlook Web Access, no Unix required, runs great on W2K
and 98. Handles calendars, mail, Journals, and to-dos (and contacts, but you
didn't mention them.) And you can view each others calendars w/o a problem
provided you have appropriate rights.

Just a thought.

Subject: Suggestions please for e-mail client


In our new venture we will not have a Domino server to connect to, so we're
not sure that sticking with Notes is worth the effort - we only use
calendar, mail, Journal and To-Do lists.  No databases or anything, but
being able to view each others calendars is essential.  The mail server is
likely (but not certain) to be an AS400/iSeries.

In making suggestions please bear in mind that:

Mail replication and remote access capabilities are essential.
We are _not_ Unix literate (and in no hurry to become so) so self-assembly
kits of that btype are out
The suggested software must run on W2K and Win98.
If Notes R5 is still the answer - which *!%$ version do I order?  You can
tell they are an IBM company  - the product set is as confusing as
possible!
