Good question. But I remember poring over some of the press coverage
at the time when they were bought by Microsoft, looking for references
to FreeBSD, and I didn't see any mention of it - only Solaris and NT
(they'd tried to convert to the latter, but failed)

Whatever OS they run, their mail server does not run Sendmail (or if
it does, it's customised - the prompts aren't right for Sendmail)
