Try exporting a .csv from Zimbra and importing into Yahoo mail or the other way around. You will never be able to get your contacts and notes without third party server-side scripts. Once that fun is over try accessing Zimbra server from Zimbra desktop... Zimbra has some serious issues. Try exporting a .csv from Zimbra and importing into Yahoo mail or the other way around.

The issue I am raising is that Yahoo! could give every one of its users the ability to enjoy the core benefits of Microsoft Exchange with the information that users already put in their databases. Even Google, to this date, does not have that level of integration or the desktop client capability Zimbra gives Yahoo! Sadly, Yahoo! keeps missing the point with Go and with this product and as a result its users will keep migrating outward to the opposition. And again - the Zimbra server looks amazing.

Zimbra desktop is limited, if promising, with other systems. It's meant to work with Zimbra server. If you give that a shot, you can even sync directly, natively using BES, with that Blackberry of yours. No additional software, and you don't have to use the web, it uses the built-in email (sent folder syncs, and mail shows as read, too!), calendar, contacts and tasks, and syncs with them all. Google can't do that. Currently testing the Blackberry with Zimbra hosting provider <a href="http://www.01.com" rel="nofollow">01.com</a>, plan to test the iPhone with them later in September, when support for <a href="http://blog.01.com/?p=417" rel="nofollow">multiple calendars is due</a>.
