So far (fingers crossed) we haven't had anything other than minor 
hiccups and the only maintenance necessary has been the odd 
DiskWarrior check and Speed Disk defrag.  However, before it all goes 
belly-up the server will be replaced by a PC running courier (see 
earlier message) in the new year.

The reason we used SIMS in the first place was one of those 
'historical accidents' and it just kept on going so no-one worried 
about it.  We did replace another mail server here with Communigate 
Pro, but don't have the funds for another licence to replace the SIMS 
server :-(

Is there a prize for having the most SIMS accounts?  I'm thinking 
that another Communigate Pro licence would make a great Christmas 
present ;-)
