Samsung Contact is the old HP product I believe, which is a tangle of a 
thousand binaries.  I would have a look at opengroupware.org, which has 
previously been commercial and has a good history (There is a ready to 
run Knoppix style CD), you could also look at Bynari's exchange 
replacement, which is a was a doddle to set up three years ago.  The 
other one I have not tried is Kroupware.

Kind regards
Xander
