Zimbra Desktop's e-mail interface should be familiar to users of either Outlook or Yahoo Mail. (Click for larger version.)
There's still work to be done getting Zimbra to run as a standalone application. This is the error message that I got after complications minimizing the application.
One feature I liked, similar to Gmail’s conversation view, shows a [...]
Stepping up his one-man PR offensive, activist investor Carl Icahn described as “completely disingenuous” Yahoo’s contention that disagreements over price torpedoed acquisition talks with Microsoft.
At the same time, Icahn remained unenthusiastic about any of the alternative deals being bruited about between Yahoo and Microsoft in lieu of an outright acquisition.

In the past year Cisco has acquired PostPath, which enables it to move Exchange users to its Linux-based, drop-in Exchange clone (PDF), and Jabber, which adds presence and instant messaging. It already had WebEx and more, giving Cisco a well-rounded collaboration story that mimics Microsoft in key places, like Exchange/e-mail, but surpasses it in others.

Well, I wasn’t able to figure out how to do [...]

However, the 30 million customers whose records have been exposed this year may not all be affected by ID fraud; the affected companies may provide credit monitoring services which may stop fraudulent [...]
The partnership, which is designed to increase Yahoo’s ad revenue, is “still on track,” a source familiar with the partnership said, and an announcement is expected next week. That aligns well with reports in the New York Post and Reuters.

This may very well be true, but it misses the point, as noted. If the cost is the same, buy Linux. Linux doesn’t come with a monopoly attached to it. Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words, as this one provided by Roy Schestowitz does.
About 3 million computers [...]
