We upgraded to C.03 last Thursday on our production Desk host and
haven't had any problems.  C.03 is mostly a fixed C.02, there is not
much in the way of new enhancements.   We use both the MS Mail client,
Windows GUI and the OpenMail/OpenDesk gateway.      We also ran the
beta on a non-production host without any problems.

The Windows GUI does not have a spelling checker.  If your users can
live without it, go for it.
However, none of the clients are supported on Windows 95 (they do work
except for a few features are lost).   If you plan on going to Windows
95, it's time to look at an alternative for OpenDesk  (it's time to
look anyways....).
