Migrating from openexchange

My organization is planning a migration from SuSE Linux Openexchange Server 4 to Scalix 11. We have 200+ users at the moment; our intention is to set about 75 premium users under scalix, with the rest being standard.

I was not involved in the initial setup of openexchange and have not personally migrated from any email server to another.

Migrating the emails should be simple enough, but I'm having some trouble figuring out how to migrate the rest of the data (such as calendars). Does anybody have experience with an openexchange migration? How could i go about exporting calendar data from openexchange and importing calendar data into Scalix?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

How do you connect to the mail system now? With Outlook? Then you could just do an export to a pst and then reimport in to the Scalix box.

The majority of users just use the webmail client

It is much easier if you could outlook to export, but you can use tools like Imap2Imap to migrate. They work, but are not great.
