We are currently using LOTUS NOTES, in our corporate and in different locations connected by dial-ip. My requirement is, IS THERE ANY EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION SOLUTION IS AVAILABLE? ( apart from MS Exchange SERVER) and how it can be SET UP?

if you are using dial up, i suggest using replication. you can configure notes to dial up to domino server and replicate to get email etc that way. need a consultant? i run notes and domino here. have a sacrifcial domino mail and replication server sitting on internet, available to replication users and internet mail users all over world. replicates back to my network over lotus propriatory serial replication link. speed not an issue. main domino server is not exposed to tcpip at all. talks to lan on ipx spx.
depending on your version of domino and notes there are many secure options. make them send you to school.
don't bend your mind on a vpn if you don't need it. start with requirements and draw a picture of how it is now and how you want it to be. hang out at www.lotus.com. free redbooks with all the info on what you seek on that website.

Thanks for your suggesstions. Actually we are facing problems to attach big sized files, with in our organisations and the baud rate of the dial-up is very poor. In each and every unit we need to hav a Lotus notes server. IS THERE A WAY TO MAKE ALL THESE CENTRALISED BY HAVING A EFFECTIVE CONNECTIVITY AND SHOULD NOT FACE PROB OF LARGE FILE ATTACHMENT AND SO ON. Can v go for LINUX MAIL server, instead of Lotus notes?
