There are a lot of reasons. Exchange fits certain business models and other mail systems fit other business models. We host multiple mail domains for clients, exchange just is not practical for our hosting environment.
The comment "it seems that there are a lot of issues with imail each time a new patch, version or upgrade comes out." Couldn't you subsititute Exchange for Imail. We actually support numerous exchange servers for clients and we see plenty of issues with upgrades on exchange. Imail has features that are really nice and other features that could be strengthened. But other platforms have their own limitations. Chuck Schick Warp 8, Inc.

Our production servers are all exchange boxes. Please don't be offended when I ask/say this ((I don't mean anything bad by this) it seems that there are a lot of issues with imail each time a new patch, version or upgrade comes out. What benefits do you be from imail vs exchange? Besides the cost issue what is imail doing better than exchange?
