The email and calendar server software works with other email clients such as Outlook Express, Windows Vista Mail, Mac Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird and Qualcomm Eudora.

Version 8 provides a completely new Ajax calendar/contacts/mail Web client that allows users to link their contacts and calendar to Microsoft Outlook 2007 as they would a SharePoint list.
