Once a luxury for big companies, email is now a live-or-die business utility. Although free solutions like Sendmail provide solid email functionality, enterprises have had to move to costly groupware solutions such as Microsoft Exchange for advanced features like calendaring.

Stalker Software aims to bridge the gap between simple email and groupware with the latest release of its workhorse email server, CommuniGate Pro. The new version includes a MAPI Connector add-in that lets Microsoft Outlook clients connect to a CommuniGate Pro server while still enjoying most of the groupware and calendar functionality familiar to Exchange users.
