That is actually not true. Kolab supports virtual domains ... because postfix does. Kolab does not support multiple virtual domains in the default setup in the current stable release of the server. You have to configure the setup yourself as you normally would with a postfix server. It does become slightly more complicated to setup because you have to know how Kolab works internally. Many people have done it already, but it is not the easiest task to accomplish. Multiple domain support is available in the development snapshots, and beta releases for version 2.1 As for the ports ... it is quite simple to change the ports Kolab services run on to avoid this conflict. I do it all the time. It runs apache, so just like any other apache configuration, you can modify the Listen directives and the host settings to use an alternate port. As for mail + web running on the same server ... that's perfectly acceptable. Should we run a different server for ftp, and a different server for DNS, and a different server for samba shares or SVN or CVS as well? If you have the resources and ability to combine services onto the same machine I would think you would make use of that instead of having underutilized machines. If the situation demands a dedicated server ... by all means. There is no harm is running them all together though.
