It is true that if there is a solution out there that solves
a problem it should be suggested as a resolution. However, I
do find it disturbing that no IMail folks ever seem to jump
on here and say "Hey, you can also do this ()". I am currently
evaluating an upgrade path from 5 to 8. 5 has a lot of problems
but it has worked for a long time. From what I'm reading though
it doesn't look like all that much progress has been made in 
4 years and 3 versions. Is there anyone out there willing to say
that this mail server is a stable product? I don't understand how
anyone could honestly say that if I buy product A which has feature
C only works as advertised if you buy product B, for the price of A, 
which only does C.
Perhaps I've missed something extra that declude does, but I don't
seem to understand how staying on IMail can be justified if you 
have to buy something else so that it works as advertised.
As far as price goes I don't think there is anyway to tell a vendor
how to structure their price plan. If it was too expensive no one 
would use it. If you think it is too expensive don't use it. If
your product only works correctly with the vendor add on then maybe
its time to re-evaluate the original product. 
So, in summary, I would like to know if anyone has a stock IMail 
solution that does seem to work just fine. One that is stable and
handles mail for over 4,000 domains. 

I know this is kind of a train of thought email. It doesn't really
have a point or a conclusion. I'm just looking for some input on
IMail to help be deciede if I should stick with it - which is the
whole reason I joined this list.

Thanks,
