Pop accounts - No Exchange - Can I share calendar information

[booker@mgt]

What is the best way for a small office - 3- 5 people to share a calendar.
They are not using Exchange, but they have a domain name and pop email
services with their Domain host. They also have a Windows 2000 Server that
they use as a file server?

Hi booker,

are they all in the same network (LAN)?

Yes, they are all on the same LAN.

I will speak with them more tonight, but they may also be thinking about how
when they are not in the office, they can still update/share calendar
information. I will read these articles. Thanks

Hi booker,


most of the solutions in the "article" are "read only" solutions. To "share"
a PST file without Exchange, I think you will need a 3rd party tool, but
maybe one of the "read only" solutions solve your problem.

but they may also be thinking about how
when they are not in the office,

This tool could be helpfull for a "web access" on Outlook without Exchange:

Maybe it helps.

id they have outlook 2007, they can publish to an iis server - if the server
is exposed to the internet, they can access it from outside with outlook).

work.
