Mdaemon, Wingate, etc.  There are a lot of quality, featureless products
out there for you to use.

Subject: ETRN on Exchange or MDaemon?


I have a client who is using FineLine on a SCO box. Basically all their
e-mail goes to one POP3 account at the ISP. Fineline retrieves that mail
and distributes it to it's own internal e-mail boxes. Clients retrieve
mail from the FineLine server using Outlook Express. The SCO box seems
to have bit the dust. I am trying to get them back up and running as
quickly as possible, MDaemon seems to be an identical product that runs
on the Windows platform. Looks like I can get this up and running in
less than an hour. My other option is to setup ETRN with the ISP, and
install Exchange 2000, which is the long term goal here, but it will be
much more complicated and time consuming. I am leaning towards trying
MDaemon.

I would appreciate any input. All comments welcome.

Why not just ask the isp to break out into the mailboxes and put them
there until you can bring in the exchange. Otherwise when you upgrade
down the road mail is lost during that time..
