Outlook calendar works off this package but still connects to something like Citadel or whatever for email?

I set up a simple ftp server with anonymous users being able to write to it and in outlook, I set the free/busy schedule to publish to
ftp://ipaddress/user.vfb and made sure the same information was true within the contact in Outlook. That took care of calendar sharing for me.
It'll show you that they are busy or available, but it won't show you what they are doing (like a doctor's appointment or some such thing), so there's still a bit of privacy for the user.
You can also write a quickie vbs script that'll import all the contacts with the free/busy information already in it if you'd like everyone to have the same contacts list.
If you want to know more, let me know and I'll share some code with you.
