Oh we were using Mdaemon and it was nice and sweet... I could pass it emails without even having a fully qualified email address in there...
We have users that daily with the friend feature type incorrect emails intentionally thinking it will prevent them from being emailed anything later... In turn, our new server says with those, oh not syntax valid email address, forget you :) so their email never reaches their friend... IMail is on my list to install and test for a while... just client/company cost... Otherwise we would be there... Moving away from Mdaemon because my email volume and clients is ever increasing that especially with mailing list broadcasts and such, a good SMTP spooler needs to replace Mdaemon's not so speedy one... outside of that issue Mdaemon has server us well for years.
