Scalix does have its own ActiveSync and BlackBerry gateway products. I haven't tried them. I am generally happy with NotifyLink 4.6 for ActiveSync devices. I think with IMAP, CalDav and LDAP you could configure Iphones to talk directly to Scalix but you wouldn't have address book syncing.

The LDAP functionality seems to be a front end- the user contact information is extracted somehow from the database and converted to LDAP functionality. it isn't really being stored in an LDAP system.
Which is almost a non-issue anyway since most e-mail clients can't write to LDAP. You would think it would be such a no-brainer for e-mail server and client developers to want to be able to do this. I mean it is "Light Weight ADDRESS BOOK" protocol. (I think Gnome Evolution may be the exception.)
Thunderbird has a google contacts plugin- you could use google to host your contacts. But that isn't so secure and then doesn't help you with Outlook or Scalix Web Access users.
