[News] Yahoo Turns to Zimbra for Mail

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Yahoo! finally using Zimbra

,----[ Quote ]
| So, is this move with the calendar the first of many? If so, Yahoo! has been 
| very quiet about it. Zimbra has been busy as a standalone Yahoo! business, 
| continuing to build momentum with its enterprise email and collaboration 
| product, replacing Microsoft Exchange at universities, governments, and 
| enterprises. Still, I suspect Yahoo! intended for Zimbra to be more than just 
| a successful-but-separate division. Hopefully this revised calendar is a sign 
| of good (Zimbra-based) things to come at Yahoo!.

Here is why it's foolish to bet on non-Free software:

| The newly-capitalized company also dropped the community beta testers who are 
| the opinion leaders of the community. Affiliates and resellers were likewise 
| ousted. A no-refunds policy was instituted. And those customers who had paid 
| hundreds of dollars for the last few copies of the old 6.2 version were told 
| tough luck, pay twice, you get no discount to upgrade to the new version.

Testdriving Zimbra Desktop Mail for Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Ever since Yahoo acquired Zimbra, a lot of us were waiting for the next big
| thing in desktop emailing. Recently, Yahoo launched Zimbra desktop, an open
| source email client which aims to increase your productivity by integrating
| an email client, calendar, task list, contact manager and a briefcase, all in
| one slick and easy package.
| It's time to see how well it fares with my current favorite - Thunderbird.

Zimbra Releases Version 3 Of Open Source Email Client, And It’s Awesome

,----[ Quote ]
| Zimbra Desktop, which is built on Mozilla Prism, is available for Windows,
| Mac and linux machines. It weighs in at 40 MB, about double the size of
| Thunderbird. The product promises the robust features of Outlook, which are
| lacking in Outlook Express and Thunderbird. Users can access Yahoo mail
| accounts, Zimbra accounts, or any Pop/IMAP supported email boxes. Zimbra
| Desktop also includes a calendar, contact list and other features.

Open-Xchange lures Zimbra users

,----[ Quote ]
| It looks like Microsoft's proposed Yahoo acquisition is already attracting
| its share of buzzards: Open-Xchange, a prominent open source competitor to  
| Microsoft Exchange, is looking to lure customers of Yahoo subsidiary Zimbra
| with an offer of steep discounts.

Zimbra's new Desktop: Look ma, no browser!

,----[ Quote ]
| How did Zimbra do this? With Prism, which is a Mozilla project that basically
| lets applications borrow a tightly integrated, stripped-down version of the
| Firefox browser to run as standalone applications. This gives them all of the
| benefits of the browser (and the Web) without the browser artifacts. It's a
| match made in heaven.

| This means competition authorities will view Microsoft's potential take-over

| absorption of its chief e-mail competitor.  
|
| Yahoo! will do what it takes to avoid acquisition by Microsoft. Roy is
| working on it.

Yahoo! to boost collaboration offerings with Zimbra
