If you are using Centos as a desktop, you'll probably want to upgrade to
6.0 at the first opportunity which should get you up to T-bird 3.1.x
with a matching thunderbird-ligntening in EPEL. Still need the exchange
connector, though.
I've come to prefer an android phone for reading the calendar and
getting notifications, though - and I normally have a laptop with
outlook on my desk. And I could probably live with that or the web
interface to create new entries.
