Geofrey,
Kindly ignore that part of the specs. I did some revisions and forgot to delete that. We will handle virtualisation at the implementation phase.

regards,
James

@isaac get a proper SPAM filter for Zimbra not sure how  they tackle that 

Now looking at the quote , i already see trouble

1.48 GB Ram and 16 TB HDD partitioned to 3 and one partition to have AD 
2.Linux to be in there somewhere to support Zimbra

First of all your server will never achieve more than 20 GB Ram utilization since HDD I/O at 20 GB Ram will be so high it will almost freeze the bare metal server 

but look at the article below before doing so

Skunks,

I need someone to quickly supply a server and setup Zimbra as per the attached specifications. Kindly send me a quote directly to this address. I will revert to the competitive quote with further details. For ease of system implementation, I would prefer that both are supplied by the same vendor.  Kindly pay attention to the server and Zimbra specifications  including license requirements.

regards,
James Kagwe
