Well, I feel like I'm under siege, so I'm looking for fellow defenders. :-) A project here that we thought was just looking for a new mail system to replace CCMail (for the PC centric general users) has expanded beyond recognition and wants to take over everything. One of their expectations is that we will toss out our existing FreeBSD/sendmail mail hub and put in M$ Exchange. Eeek! So, I'm looking for as much anti exchange ammunition as I can find. I'm interested, of course, in technical stuff, but even more interested in war stories of managers getting fired for breaking the mail system. And it can't hurt to be directed to sites that describe how to build an exchange replacement from open source tools, just to scare them with. Thanks, Stephen. Disclaimer: Um, well, what sort of disclaimer can I put here? I'm acting on my own, nobody put me up to it, this is not official policy, official policy is to stick your head in the sand, no oops, I can't say that, strike that bit, OK?
