Is there an Exchange server equivalent for Apple Xserve?

I have an Apple Xserve and I'd like to run something like an Exchange server, to allow my Entourage clients to host calendar, email, Tasks, and addressbooks on there. Is Apple working on anything like this?

Hi
There should be no need to post in the XServe Forum. The XServe is dedicated server hardware, your question is really about the Server OS. You could browse the Server Forum for more information:
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=96
To answer your question - Yes, absolutely. Kerio Mail Server:
http://www.kerio.co.uk/kms_home.html
Zimbra:
http://www.zimbra.com/products/
Both of these products offer support for iPhone, Treo and Blackberry. KMS has a handy facility where it can remotely 'wipe' a supported mobile device if its been stolen. Although this is speculation and not really 'allowed' on these forums I think Apple is working towards similar features in their forthcoming Server products. Right now Apple's built in mail server is poor in terms of what is offered using the Interface. It's good enough to get you going if all you want are simple Mail Services. It's actually quite good. However if you want more then you there is not much you can't achieve if you're prepared to use the command line. A necessity at some stage if you are contemplating administering a server regardless of its role. Apple are planning to expand what is available by adding 'out of office' and server side 'email rules' facilities in Snow Leopard:
http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/snowleopard/
You don't have that currently unless you are prepared to install avelsieve:

I'm not sure how well Apple's built-in Mail Server supports shared contacts and calendars with Microsoft's products? It's been some time but I have had some mixed success in the past. KMS has no problem regardless of platform or what is being used. For PCs it behaves exactly as if it was an Exchange Server.

  • Exchange Server 2008 and Apple Mail App

    My place of employment recently hired a 3rd party company to handle setting up and managing our servers. This includes our email, which is now run on Microsoft Exchange Server 2008.
    I am the only user in the office that uses Macs, and we are having an impossible time of figuring out what could be wrong that Apple Mail is not letting us connect to the Exchange server to receive/send email. We can ping the Exchange server just fine from Terminal.
    Does anyone have any experience with this? Anyone know of work-arounds? I'm using 10.4.11 at the moment. Mail is version 2.1.3.
    I read all the other Exchange-related topics in here and none were able to help me.
    Thank you!

    Well that's bizarre, since I have the opposite problem. I can connect to the Exchange Server using Entourage 2004 no problem. However I do not use the Outlook http:// type access, I simply typed in the Exchange server address something like SEBNN-EX002. Then Entourage went off and established all the connections et voila.!
    But there are issues however. Entourage could not connect to the address server, so I think that's an LLDP problem but I'm not too bothered about that. Also I think some of the Calender implementations have a few bugs. For example, you can't drag-and-drop a mail item onto the calender icon to create an event, you have to right-click and use the built-in scripts to do it. Also, inviting attendees to a meeting is a bit hit/miss.
    I would actually like to use Apple Mail instead, but have never been able to configure it to run - it always gets the "cannot connect to exchange server" error. An y advice would be welcome.

  • Exchange Server Installation for a DAG environment

    I have prepared 6 servers for exchange 2013 installation :
    2 for DC and ADC   -- OS windows server 2012 R2
    2 for CAS Role       -- OS Windows server 2012
    2 for Mailbox Role  -- OS Windows Server 2012 
    As Windows Server 2012 R2 is not supported for installing Exchange 2013 i decommissioned 4 Servers ( CAS and Mailbox ) and starting from scratch.
    Will the above scenario work now ... like having Domain controller OS  in Server 2012 R2  and CAS and Mailbox Server Roles in Server 2012 Version ?
    How to install individual Server role for exchange server 2013 ( i mean CAS role on 2 servers and Mailbox on 2 servers). are there any steps to follow on for this ?
    Please let me know on this.

    Windows 2012 R2 will work for a server OS for your Domain Controllers.  However, the Forest and Domain functional levels need to be Windows 2012 or less. 
    For your Exchange 2013 servers, there are a lot of unanswered questions here and these forums only give us a certain amount of space and time to explain the entire installation process.   If this is for production and your not sure what to do,
    your best bet is to hire a consultant to help you out to make sure you get all the ins and outs.  At the very least you can get assistance in your deployment.  If you don't have budget for this or are creating a test lab, you can always try using
    the Exchange Deployment -
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/jj657516.aspx.  This might give you an idea of how to proceed.
    There are a lot of examples of Exchange installs out there as well.  If this is a lab, these are well worth looking through and tinkering with to get to know the product better: 
    Example -

  • Is there a logic:match equivalent for JSTL?

    In a search page I execute a query which returns an array of objects (All objects are of the same object type and are cast to Object[]) and each object has many attributes. I tried using <logic:iterate>, but I was never successful in having it display any results. I believe this had something to do with the entire array being passed via session scope instead of just one record and me not specifying it properly with <logic:iterate>. I was able to successfully use <c:forEach> and it worked right away. I stuck with using that because of its "just works" ability in addition to using a lot of other JSTL code. However, one of the attributes that is being printed out needs to be parsed and is of the form "Yxxx". <logic:match> covers this very nicely, but when I specify it in the below code it is not able to find my variable in any scope.
    <c:forEach var="myResults" items="${sessionScope.result}" varStatus="status">
        <logic:match parameter='${myResults}' property='pin' value='Y'>
            <c:out value="Preeti"/>
        </logic:match>
    </c:forEach>I have done several google searches, but I haven't found a JSTL equivalent for <logic:match>. If there is one could someone please tell me what it is? In addition, although <logic:match> is great I still need to print out a substring of that attribute. Could someone tell me how to do that? If this is not possible could someone please tell me if its possible to use <logic:iterate> with an array of objects like I was attempting to do initially so that I could use <logic:match> at least?
    Thanks to all of you for your time.

    Yes you can use the logic:iterate tag. I think you have to specify the type of the exposed variable though. I prefer the forEach loop.
    I think you are using the wrong attribute in the logic:match tag. You should be using the "name" attribute rather than "parameter"
    Parameter attribute refers you to a request parameter, and I pretty sure you don't want that.
    So given the collection of objects in the session attribute "result"
    This should loop through them all, and see if they start with the letter 'Y'
    <c:forEach var="myResults" items="${sessionScope.result}" varStatus="status">
        <logic:match name='myResults' property='pin' value='Y'>
            <c:out value="Preeti"/>
        </logic:match>
    </c:forEach>As for the latter bit, are you using a JSP2 container and JSTL1.1? It would appear so seeing as you are trying to use EL expressions in the logic:match tag.
    If so, you could make use of the JSTL function library:
    <c:forEach var="myResults" items="${sessionScope.result}" varStatus="status">
       <c:if test='${fn:startsWith(myResults.pin, "Y")}'>
          <c:out value="${fn:substring(myResults.pin, 1, -1)}"/>
        </c:if>
    </c:forEach>And I've just spotted a very cool function in there: substringAfter
    <c:forEach var="myResults" items="${sessionScope.result}" varStatus="status">
          <c:out value='${fn:substringAfter(myResults.pin, 'Y')}'/>
    </c:forEach>Cheers,

    Hi there Keynote users,
    Anyone know of an Adobe Ovation equivalent for Keynote? We are trying to use Keynote to drive multiple Plasma/LCD displays and need an app for the transition effects capabilities that Ovation offers to PowerPoint but in Keynote.

  • HT1277 I'm having trouble connecting my Exchange Server with my Apple Mail product.

    Per setting up the account, I'm getting email, so, I believe my Exchange IMAP is correct, but, I cannot send email to anyone outside my internal network.  The wierd thing is that when I go to the Connection Doctor (after I get the Try Again...or...Try Again with Selected Server screen), I get a green light on the SMTP Server and a red light on the Exchange IMAP Server.  Any comments would be appreciated. 

    Edgar,
    I highly recommend, if you live in an area where there may be overlapping WiFi networks..  use recent OS X's hidden WiFi Diagnostics utility......
    Hold down the Option key, click on the WiFi icon in the menu bar and click on Open WiFi Diagnostics... This works for (maybe 10.7... cant remember..) 10.8,10.9 and 10.10.
    ...and check for any nearby WiFis that may be on the same channel.... and if there are, change your WiFi channel to a different one so your signal remains clear  of interference and more importantly uninterrupted... LR seems very susceptible to such brief 'breaks' or interruptions...
    Personally because of where I live, there are no competing networks and I have no issues at all using LR with any of my 5 LP rigs here.. switching between them at will....
    The only other item of interest that I have found when troubleshooting such issues.. is the use of non Apple Routers..... and a failure of automatic port forwarding for example...but this cause usually prevents connection altogether and not intermittent issues... Haven't come across anyone using an Airport Extreme for example.. from 2009 onwards, who has any issues connecting LR to LPX... but a number of older Netgear, TP-Link and D-Links ones seems to have this issue at times...
    Cheers..

  • Exchange Server 2003 with Apple Mail Setup Issues

    Hi everyone,
    I've been trying my hardest to setup my designer's Mac on our Exchange 2003 Server with Apple Mail with little success. I was able to setup the Exchange account as the Outlook Web Access server is setup for IMAP. However, I seem to have trouble with the incoming and outgoing mail servers. Running through the Connection Doctor says that the account is connected, however the outgoing mail server is not responding. I am using the mail server info from my MIS guy. For examples:
    I setup the Outlook Web Access Sever as: "OWA-XX/exchange"
    - This seems to connect the account
    I setup the Outgoing Mail Server as: "mail-xxx2", with password enabled. This server address was provided to me by my MIS guy
    - The Mac claims is cannot access this server.
    Any suggestions here? My buddy is running the latest 10.4 on a old PowerMac G4 QuickSilver.

    My buddy upgraded to Office 2004 with Entourage which did the trick!
