If we're going to be talking about SETI@Home and suchlike, I might as well
mention the World Community Grid:

My machine has been on WCG for several years. Does the humanitarian research
being done here relate to our discussion? You decide.

Maybe that is one solution.
But you can keep using your hardware, too:

The question is "What stops us?".
If it is so easy to share hardware, then why do we continue to grovel

There is a Zimbra mail server, which is a corporate Webmail, like
Gmail but more open, and can be deployed on company's servers.
This one has a "viewable source" license, and no Debian packages.
