Zimbra Desktop

if it's a windoze program, you have to run it under wine, unless you have a linux version of it.

i do not use programs like this but maybe this will help

marcus a. it is for windows mac or linux .

I know it is for linux also, but I was wondering how do I install it onto Linux, because it wants to open under Archive Manager instead of Ubuntu Software Center

then let it .

Then how do I install it with archive manager?

this is the best i could find .

The reason it is trying to open it with the Archive Manager is that it is an archive of the source.
Open up a terminal(ctrl+alt+t, or from the accessories menu) and issue the following commands:

Download the file:
wget http://files2.zimbra.com/downloads/zdesktop/10580/zdesktop_2_0_b10580_linux_i686.tgz
Extract the files from the archive using (sudo in this case is very important!):
sudo tar xzvf zdesktop_2_0_b10580_linux_i686.tgz
Then cd into that directory:
cd zdesktop_2_0_b10580_linux_i686/
And run:
sudo perl install.pl
Enter your password and hit return/enter.

Follow the onscreen instructions, if you choose the defaults, you should have a launcher on your desktop, we need to get rid of that and the zdesktop directory in your home folder:
cd ~
sudo rm -rf zdesktop Desktop/zd.desktop

Then we need to create a new one using:
/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/user-install.pl

Now you will have a new launcher on your desktop, that actually works, BTW, you should complain about this to the zimbra people, it should not be like this.

Hope that helps, if this works for you please mark this as best answer :)
Best Regards,
