Thanks, Bill. But this sentence doesn't make any sense to me:

I realize zimbra is a complete solution for email, but I don't entirely understand what you mean when you say "You don't install it on your webserver". By this, do you mean that it's not managed by Apache? I already knew that. I understand that zimbra acts as its own MTA and that it listens on its own ports, completely separate from httpd. When I said "webserver", I meant the actual physical server, not the httpd software.
So...I think we're on the same page.

To answer your question, yes the import tool is for the Network Edition.

Hmmmmmm. That's too bad. It's critical for me that I be able to move all my existing messages from my local Outlook archive onto the server. Otherwise, there's not much point in migrating.
The Zimbra people should consider making the PST Import tool (though none of the other Outlook connectivity features) a part of the Open Source edition. It seems like it would encourage more uptake.
Anyhow, rather than migrating from Outlook to Thunderbird and then from Thunderbird to Zimbra, I'll probably just connect directly from Outlook to Zimbra (using IMAP) and then manually drag my messages from the local folders to the IMAP folders. Does that sound like it would work?
