OPEN-XCHANGE
Open-Xchange Server is a messaging and collaboration solution that combines common free software packages, open standards, and Web services. It is available as a proprietary software and as a community supported open-source software package. It works with a broad array of browsers, PDAs, and rich clients. Innovative connectors, called "OXtenders", enhance customer flexibility by using open standard APIs to integrate existing IT infrastructures or extend capabilities to mobile devices, fax servers, back-up utilities, email archiving tools, and Samba administration tools.

Express edition was launched and looks like the best open-source collaboration application that I have seen. Runs on Ubuntu
This project seems to be dead
There has been no progress since august 2006... Unfortunately a great project simply dies away..

Zimbra has about 1/2 the functionality and is long-term way more expensive than OX (OX charges only for upgrades, zimbra uses a subscription-based model per-user/per-year). Both are good products, but I would suggest OX if you're looking long-term.
Love it...
Great project, I was amazed at the functionality of it. Hope word gets around soon, the developers deserve the credit. For a small or mid-sized company, this product alone has done wonders for our productivity without taking anything away in terms of training. Thanks guys!!
Re: Great piece of software
Full ACK. After having some problems with the installation (specially the ldap part) it is a smart running piece of software. You'll get a bunch of full featured modules with lots of options. I won't miss it! Thanks to the whole OX developers, as well to the community and keep on the good work.
cyril
BTW: For those who have problems its worth to take a look to the forum, the wiki or the mailing lists which contains lots of informations about the installation, documentation and other misc stuff.
