"As a free e-mail client, half-baked"
Version: Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4
Pros
Seems to have many features
Cons
At least one significant feature that is supposed to work -- called "Incoming Message Filters" -- does not work. You would use this to sort incoming mail by subject, sender, etc. For some, it seems to work on incoming mail, but not for me. But filters cannot be applied retroactively to your inbox -- a very common requirement. The online help says that you can do this, and even provides instructions. Unfortunately, those instructions refer to at least one button that simply does not exist. There is a bugzilla entry on this, and it is marked as fixed. But several people have commented that it is not fixed.
Summary
The 'product' just does not seem to be finished, at least in its 'free' version. (I am attempting to use Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4 GA (build 11299), but will soon switch to another client.)

"Must-have for home PC of Droid & iPhone users"
Version: Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4
Pros
FINALLY can synch your gmail contacts, email, and calendar in one desktop application, and your Hotmail too! This makes it possible for Droid and iPhone users to keep their phone and desktop contacts & calendar easily in synch.
Cons
Tricky to configure a Hotmail account. (But if you have a droid, you are already trying to get away from Hotmail).
Summary
This is the missing link for mobile phone uses who need to keep their contacts, email, and calendar in synch on the same account from both phone and home PC. much easier to configure & use than Outlook. Some hints for Hotmail acct configuration, which is tricky:
username = email address.
Incoming server: pop3.live.com, security SSL.
Sending mail: SMTP server SMTP.live.com, security (no SSL), Authentication: username & password required (re-enter username & password).
Set synch for no more frequently than every 15 minutes. YOU WILL GET AN ERROR IF YOU TRY TO SYNCH MORE THAN ONCE EVERY 15 MINUTES; This is a Hotmail 'feature'. Ignore it and it will work in a few minutes. -
"DELETED ALL OF MY INBOX"
Version: Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4
Pros
Great interface but if your mail is DELETED who cares?
Cons
SYNC DELETES YOUR INBOX. Bastids!
Summary
I lost my entire inbox upon sync. All of my current mail is gone. I HATE THIS THING.
