We use Kerio, Yes. The Kerio mail server is very good for our situation. I don't know how many users we're talking about with the Exchange situation, but we have 200 users here.
Kerio has exchange compatibility, so users of Outlook/Entourage can connect using an activesync connection and receive most all the features of Exchange. Users who want connect that way can, but it's not a supported email client for us. That being said, I've never had to support any of our Outlook users beyond setting them up, it just works for them. We support our users with the webmail interface, which is excellent. Being webmail, they can/do use separate email folders with filtering/forwarding rules and whatnot. Other than that, they have a quota they cannot exceed. Kerio's week spot is it's inability to scale. There are no methods of running more than a single mail server. So if you're running thousands of users and feeling sluggish on top-notch hardware, you've moved beyond Kerio's capabilities. --Matt Ross Ephrata School District ----- Original Message ----- From: Angus Scott-Fleming [mailto:[email protected]] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wed, 21 Oct 2009 12:42:30 -0700 Subject: Re: Outlook 2007, constant hard disk thrashing. > On 21 Oct 2009 at 11:29, Matthew W.
