We are jumping into the non-Exchange IMAP world to see how a non MSFT enterprise works. We have been using Exchange for mail, calendar and contacts. However we would like to quit hosting our own email and we are also very intrigued by what is possible by integrating IMAP standards with PositiveWare.

Yesterday we started down the road by moving to an IMAP server for mail, and using Apple Mail as a client. Great, except that importing the Entourage mailboxes didn’t really happen.

We need to share calendars (no problem with iCal), but also write to each other’s calendars (big problem with iCal.) Today we will try Spanning Sync and see if that solves the problem.

Tomorrow’s challenge is Address Book.
