All these guyz who are in love in MDaemon...question to you is - at these installations was/is MDaemon purchased or were/are cracked version(s) being used? Suppose there were no cracked versions, would you still push for MDaemon or opt for highly and freely available MTA's like postfix or Zimbra for that sake??? Alex Nderitu wrote:
There is also a mix up of services here. Postfix will not do POP/IMAP since its only an MTA @Alex Nderitu Open IMAP/POP servers are numerous and freely available...lets not forget that.
Personally I'd go for open source MTA's coz: i, I don't need to spend any cash at their initial purchase, ii, Wont have to pay again after some time to receive updates or even upgrades, iii, Messing up with config.s (sometimes for days) trying to bring up an opensource MTA gives some sense of satisfaction and that 'weird' smile when all works - basically gives some ownership unlike MDaemon which might equal to "next...next...finish" kind of setup and installation plus the limits that most of these wind[0]ws systems bring in where remote management is concerned.I know most around would mention that there are equal tools for doing this in wind[0]ws 8-) but I don't just feel them! and lastly from this iv,Ease of management - especially remotely!

Hehehe...this is funny. So far the issues raised have not been able to downplay MDaemon yet. What is wrong with it? Zimbra and Exchange are in a class of its own.
@Aki,
There is nothing wrong with MDaemon at all. You will not find any arguments against it, EXCEPT for it not being Free (though lately there is a free 5-user version).
