I agree that the CL-powers-that-be shouldn't be strong-arming LCTTP into what classes it offers, but also would like to point out that:
 
- TWIG does support many features Exchange and GroupWise offer:
http://twig.screwdriver.net/about.php3
(they were just not implemented in the roll-out)
- NCC is discussing solutions to the Contacts/Calendar/Schedule/Sharing issues even as we discuss this
- Exchange/GroupWise have cost and security issues that many UNIX products (like TWIG) don't
- If you are in a mixed-user environment (UNIX, Windows Mac) - not everyone has a pretty Outlook client (only OWA for UNIX)
 
However - that said - I still think Exchange rocks, and I personally have found nothing else I would use...

Ok, then let "those" people support all the Exchange servers on campus.  Pilot is an email system.  Period. There is no calendaring, group collaboration, or sharing of data.  It is outdated.
