Something getting lost here in the discussion of the installation GUI is the request from time-to-time for an end-user GUI.
This is something that we would love to do -- and would have been done *years* ago if Ipswitch allowed third-party access to web messaging (with about 20 lines of code, they could).
The problem is that it requires packets going to and from your mailserver and your clients. If we don't use IMail's web messaging, we have to either write our own webserver, or come up with our own protocol for transferring the data. Worse, firewalls become a huge issue -- not only do you have to make sure that *your* firewall can handle packets on oddball ports (since the standard WWW port 80 is usually taken on an IMail server), your users do too. Some of your users will have firewalls preventing them from sending to non-standard ports.
That's not to say that we won't come up with an end-user GUI -- it's just that it becomes very complicated (much more so than a GUI for our customers).
