Can u please tell me where to download the Outlook connector and how to install it, I am a newbie to all this and am trying to move my MS Exchange 2007 server account to Zimbra. I installed Zimbra Desktop but cannot get it to connect to my Exchange server, I am getting SSL error which I cannot resolve! I would appreciate any directions to Outlook connector manual or user guide.
Thanks.

The Outlook Connector is part of the Zimbra Network Edition. It would help if you let us know which version of ZCS you are running

su - zimbra
zmcontrol -v

Thank you for your quick response. As I said I am a newbie and I am trying to run the Zimbra Desktop version. Should i download and try the Network Edition? Where is it at?
Thank u for your patience.

If you are just using the Zimbra Desktop then the only way to connect to Exchange will be via IMAP(s).

Ok, I cannot get the IMAP to work with ZD, I keep getting SSL errors and cannot seem to get the right port settings though I am following the exchange server's exact information. Anyway, I will try this network edition, is it the Zimbra Collaboration Suite 5.0?

[uxbod]

That is a complete collaboration suite! Please search the forums for Zimbra Desk and Exchange.

OK, I have been searching for the past 18 hours and coming up empty handed, no resolution to my problem and hence I am trying your help here.
Basically, I want to move my account from an MS Exchange 2007 server to Zimbra, so I can try it out for a while. Thusfar I have failed while trying the Desktop version, should I use the Suite version to do the migration and then revert back to the Desktop version which is what I want to be using on my MAc and my PC? Again, is the Suite the same as the "network version" you mentioned?

Zimbra Desktop is a mail client like Thunderbird. If you want the server side then yes you would need to install either the Network Edition or Community. Please have a read of Zimbra - Product Editions to understand the differences.

Looks like I will be needingthe Network Edition, Professional. i am trying out the Zimbra trial account from the site and things look great. Do you have any prefered hosting service I can get in touch with? :-)
