Have you planned for this integratio at all so far or in preliminary searches?

Will your email be just for intra-company mail? If it will be used for public contact, you'll need to plan your entire network infrastruscure first, like getting a DSLline, firewall (w/NAT), and then the server once you know you have a secure connection...

Microsoft Exchange 2000 is a really great mail server, I recommend it.

I would never consider myself an opensource advocate, however there are 3 things that it does exceptionally well. That is mail serving, web serving, and proxy serving. The last time I re-booted my mail / intranet / proxy server was during a powercut that lasted longer than the UPS battery.

If you just need basic email and nothing else, you could go with open source. My company only needs basic email for 2 domains. We use Sendmail which can handle multiple domains. It is very robust and is used my many ISP's. The best thing about it is it will run very well on an older computer. I have it on a Celeron 433 and it is very fast. My company has 30 workstations and the system is very reliable.

My main gripe about it is that it is hard to figure out if your used to Exchange Server. Once you have it up and running, it is pretty well maintenance free.

The mail server depends on what you want it for ?

The suggestion of "sendmail" is acceptable, but if going down that line "Postfix" is more user friendly, and like sendmail, will easily cope with that amount of mail. To allow your users access to the mail, you then need a POP3 service (running on the same box or similar) so that they can connect and download there mail. Do you also required some form of WebMail so that they can access it while away from the office ?
