take a bit of getting used to (to be honest), but it is easy to add/remove accounts, domains the whole works (we do it all via custom PHP/web interface) For the client end, the only problen you run into is that webmail likes ssl connections, though you can compile without it... read apache and name virtual host and ssl problems available everywhere. otherthan that, just put the CGI's in the apprpriate server cgi directory... and each customer accesses the same interface. no replication required per customer. it is better if you are familiar with FreeBSD/Apache/CGI's and can hack shell scripts and install configs... after the installation though, very low overhead from admin POV... and customers wet themselves over the control they get via the interfaces.
