Linux Email Server

[Robert Meyer]

I tend to not like POP 'cuz the PCs always download all of their messages
to the local machine, which is typically not backed up.  If a hard drive
goes bad, all of that person's Email is gone unless you've told the client
to save data to a network share (not the default windows configuration).  I
like IMAP 'cuz all of the folders are on the server and I can back up the
server easily.  I can also tell when a user is keeping disgusting amounts of
Email.  We've had users here with 2Gig Outlook PST files and they wonder why
it gets corrupted.

Just my 2 cents...

Cheers!
