I'm in the same boat. I've been evaluating SmarterMail and Mailenable (http://www.mailenable.com/). Both seem capable (but I dont have the AD requirement - although Mailenable claims to do it.) We're moving from an old version of IMail.
So far I like the interface for SmarterMail better but Mailenable has some features that we need that SmarterMail doesn't - like storing userbase/config info in a database whereas SmarterMail stores it in xml files. - Andy O. ________________________________________ From: John Aldrich [mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com] Sent: Monday, August 17, 2009 10:54 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Mail server software If you dont want to pay the cost of Exchange, what software would you get that has pretty much the same functionality as Exchange, including the following: 1) Active Directory integration 2) Shared calendars 3) Reserved meeting rooms (i.e. send a meeting invite to the room email address and reserve it.) 4) Outlook connectivity (most of the ones Ive looked at have some sort of plugin to allow Outlook to connect to them and act like Exchange.) 5) Fully functional webmail we want to have the look and feel of Outlook on the web. The two Im leaning towards right now are Icewarp and Kerio. Ive installed Kerio and its got pretty much the features I want, but Ive gotten a recommendation from one of our ISP vendors that we look at Icewarp as well. Just thought Id throw this out to see what else I should be looking at. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
