[brlug-general] no - not an Exchange Server

Hi all,

 

I'm new; I come from the NOLUG.  Since I've moved to Hammond, I thought I
would check ya'll out.

 

I have a question about email centers.  My brother-in-law has a small office
and he wants to share contacts.  He has three workstations (PC's running
Windows XP at the time), a Palm Pilot, and Nokia cellular phone.  He would
LOVE to have all the PC's (at least) and maybe the Palm Pilot and phone
share the same contact info.

 

I was trying to think of the best way to do this.  Is there an alternative
to something like an Exchange Server, which I know would be overkill and I
would like to avoid anyway.  Can a Linux server do something like this?

 

At the least I could write some sort of program to sink comma delimitated
(CSV) exports/imports which is a very ugly solution.  I know that the Palm
Pilot supports CSV.  I have no idea what can be done with his Nokia cell
phone.

 

Any ideas?
