I don't think this would allow you to use Outlook's calendaring 
because Cyrus doesn't have any way to save any calendaring 
information. You need to get a groupware product that can save the 
calendaring info. I would tell your boss that in order to get 
Outlook's calendaring to work, you either have to spend a buttload 
of money on MS Exchange (plus licensing every year) and go through 
the hassle of switching everything over, or a fraction of that price 
on SuSE Open Exchange Server, which would allow you to keep all your 
email in Cyrus (Open Exchange uses Cyrus).
