I've run Surgemail and Zimbra without any issues for years. Surgemail is cheap 
fast and extremely configurable. It has a mirror license you can get so you run 
servers flawlessly. I nan get it installed and running in literally 3 minutes.  
It pretty much configures itself. It isn't the best looking webmail but in the 
back end it is the most granular and fast mail server I've ever seen.  

Zimbra well its free and a somewhat decent exchange alternative.  Runs like a 
pig compared to Surgemail but it is solid.  

Roundcube I've run it only in test environments and I'm actually looking at it 
again for domain hosting.  So far no issues and it looks nice.  I'll have to 
see once you get a couple hundred people running on it how well it really 
works.  

It really isn't that much work to manage mail servers at all.  Once they are 
set up if you keep them up to date they really can be left alone.  They alert 
you to any problems ahead of time.

There seems to be two camps. One where people are running away form their own 
e-mail servers and then those that embrace it. I haven't found e-mail to be 
that difficult to manage.

I hope you are charging handsomely for email. We just quit it for our customer 
base...and only had 2-3 complaints. Everyone already has an email address.

Any tips of tricks for success with using Roundcube to provide webmail to 
individual end users (not a single domain corporate environment)? 

Server side is postfix + spamassassin + dovecot. 

I have a successful 'test' setup of roundcube running in a VM doing TLSv1.2 on 
smtp and imap, logged into several user accounts on test domains on the dovecot 
server. 

Wondering if anyone has run into hiccups or weird things when using roundcube 
in a production environment.
