Internet and E-Mail Server

What kind of purpose is this planned for? How big is your network and how much mail throughput are you expecting?

Are you reffering to hardware, or software platforms?
You should be able to build a single processor machine with 256-512 RAM and a HotRod IDE RAID system (2x20~40Gb Disks, mirroring) for under 2000 dollars.This will offer you enough power to support MS Proxy and MS Exchange for some 50~100 clients. Memory is esential, the more the better.

Hello,

Go to www.ipswitch.com
They have a product called I-MAIL server v.6.x
I installed it for 4 of my customers. It's rock solid and the installation program is only 6MB. It can support unlimited users. It costs about $600.00 for a 250 user license.
I installed it on an NT4.0 dedicated workstation 200MHz Pentium Pro with a 9GB hard drive and 128RAM. I used it as an SMTP, POP3 server and it currently supports 10,20, 40 and 50 users at different locations. It has a built in web server so you can check e-mails from any web browser or just use POP3 to download the messages to your POP3 clients like Outlook Express and Outlook.

W.S.
