So I'll note that when looking at this recently I see that
Skyrix/Inverse released Scalable OGo (It was a custom solution at one
point which was OGo without the document management system/crm-like
components.) I've managed a few hundred user instance of OGo, but SOGo
was made to handle tens of thousands of users, and it looks a bit
simpler. I also fear that OGo is approaching stagnation, it could just
be that it has reached maturity and changes aren't that big of a
deal.. While the changelog rss feed showed 5 or so commits, it looks
like a lot of the other things are slow - nothing more recent than FC3
instructions or packages. Apparently back in the RHEL3 time frame
Harald Hoyer was maintaining some RPM packages, but the spec
files/srpms seem to have disappeared.

Take a look at scalable ogo:
