On a slightly related tangent, has anyone seen something like Mexor
Messageware for other e-mail clients for Windoze? (Eudora/OE would be
nice).. we've got a large client who wants to deploy an LDAP address book,
and wants it to be a _real_ address book (eg, not the thing built into
Eudora/OE/Outlook where you have to do a search).. and it'd be nice if we
didn't have them to deploy Outlook around the world.
