Probably.  But I would never choose something called Foo as a
replacement for Exchange, if Foo had exactly the same bad design
issues that have driven me away from Exchange.  In other words, I do
not like this "we need the entire server machine, its resources and
all, to run ONLY our own programs."

Of course this is my humble opinion.
