Hi all,

If I understand the original question correctly, the question is to 
replace GroupWise which is somewhat similar to M$ Exchange, as opposed 
to just an MTA. It has the mail, calendar, scheduler and other [perhaps 
useless] fluff. You might look at:

http://www.samsungcontact.com/en/

which was HP OpenMail in a former life. There is another similar product 
available from:

http://www.bynari.com

which claims to to this sort of thing as well. Neither of these, 
unfortunately, are OSS, and are rather expensive. They do run on Linux 
though.

HTH,

John V.
