of a neat idea though, I can see why they are interested.
-----Original Message-----These boxes may have some advantages, but the "total cost of ownership" must always include fast repair and spare parts, both upfront and ongoing, esp for do-or-die real-time "instrastructure" such as Mail functions, which is where equivalent a solution with software running on generic, low-cost, widely available, locally replaceable PC-based hardware has a serious advantage.

If the box is just an rfc compliant box with no proprietary functions beyon admin, then I'd be inclined to achieve those functions with PC hardware.
nice website tho.
