Nope. It handles all the things that client does, but there are certain
limitations (eg, you can't drag/drop messages from folder to folder, you
don't have access to PSTs, client-side rules don't run, etc etc). I forgot
to get a screen shot of my task list, and would have put a screenshot of my
Contacts up there too (most of which were sync'd from the palm <g>), but I
was too lazy.  =)

Depending on the situation, Outlook/Exchange is hard to compare to. I've
tried OpenMail, and even worked on my own sendmail/ldap/php deal, but didn't
like the results of either. OM is definitely getting there though. Horde/IMP
is very cool if you're ok with just a web interface.

The thing is that I was able to get BO4 for such a steal, that the TCO of
Exchange vs. OM was not even worth comparing. If I had more time to work on
it, and the TCO $$ wasn't an issue, I definitely would have pursued OM.

Ok, well it appears I was misinformed.  I was led to believe that the web
interface would only deal with Email, kinda like having a Hotmail Account.
