I downloaded this thing from zimbra after reading that Ubuntu has partnered with the company and is offering it. It sits on my desktop like this:
/home/james/Desktop/zdesktop_0_90_build_1278_linux_i686.sh
I went to the synaptic manager and tried all of the download categories to no avail. Then I downloaded it from the zimbra website to my desktop.
Now I have no idea how to get it installed on my computer or to run the thing. I have tried most of the things that I could figure out from the 'help' man, (see the printout below) and I got nothing.
Does any one know how to get this thing to install and run on Ubuntu. I have read (skimmed, as I don't want to spend the rest of the year trying to figure out what I need)three different tutorials and I can't find any notation of how to save and run something like this.
Any help would be appreciated.

Usage: install [OPTION]... [-T] SOURCE DEST
or: install [OPTION]... SOURCE... DIRECTORY
or: install [OPTION]... -t DIRECTORY SOURCE...
or: install [OPTION]... -d DIRECTORY...
In the first three forms, copy SOURCE to DEST or multiple SOURCE(s) to
the existing DIRECTORY, while setting permission modes and owner/group.
In the 4th form, create all components of the given DIRECTORY(ies).
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
--backup[=CONTROL] make a backup of each existing destination file
-b like --backup but does not accept an argument
-c (ignored)
-d, --directory treat all arguments as directory names; create all
components of the specified directories
-D create all leading components of DEST except the last,
then copy SOURCE to DEST
-g, --group=GROUP set group ownership, instead of process' current group
-m, --mode=MODE set permission mode (as in chmod), instead of rwxr-xr-x
-o, --owner=OWNER set ownership (super-user only)
-p, --preserve-timestamps apply access/modification times of SOURCE files
to corresponding destination files
-s, --strip strip symbol tables
-S, --suffix=SUFFIX override the usual backup suffix
-t, --target-directory=DIRECTORY copy all SOURCE arguments into DIRECTORY
-T, --no-target-directory treat DEST as a normal file
-v, --verbose print the name of each directory as it is created
-P, --preserve_context (SELinux) Preserve security context
-Z, --context=CONTEXT (SELinux) Set security context of files and directories
--help display this help and exit
--version output version information and exit
The backup suffix is `~', unless set with --suffix or SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX.
The version control method may be selected via the --backup option or through
the VERSION_CONTROL environment variable. Here are the values:
none, off never make backups (even if --backup is given)
numbered, t make numbered backups
existing, nil numbered if numbered backups exist, simple otherwise
simple, never always make simple backups
