I haven't actually used the external database with IMail, but you don't need to install Access on your server to use an Access database. (In fact, I personally would not install any MS Office software on a server). You just need an ODBC mapping.

Ok. I have just been informed that they are using an Access database for their mail server. I currently do not have access installed on our mail server. How hard would it be to convert the access database to the imail database? I would love to have their machine but we did not buy out their domain name.
