(without Outlook)
Hello All,
I have a client with 5 machines/users on a peer to peer network. The
only network resource they share is access to the Internet. About an
hour ago, he asked me to help him set up email addresses for the 5
people in the office. He visited a friend that has an exchange server
and all of the employees are using outlook. He asked me if I could set
his office up the same way.
After going over the potential security risks associated with using
Exchange and Outlook, I think I finally have him convinced that
Outlook/Exchange is a bad idea. He is now giving me the opportunity to
come up with more secure alternatives. This is where I need the help.
He wants to be able to open the program or website and schedule a
meeting with the people that he needs to attend. Those people should in
turn receive an email (or whatever notice possible) stating the meeting
has been scheduled, who scheduled it and should be allowed to confirm
that they will be there.
There should be a universal address book that allows you to associate
birthdays and anniversaries with contacts and those birthdays and
anniversaries should show up on the calendar.
They already have PCs or laptops which are either running Windows XP or
Windows 2000. They have a spare machine that I could install Linux on
if need be, but the users will still have to run Windows on their
machines.
If there is a web based solution for all of this, they can get the web
space if needed. The main thing is, he wants to be able to sync all of
this with his Handspring Treo.
Is there such an animal?
