I'm looking to upgrade our Imail box (Dell Optiplex, 600mhz, 256MB,
Win2000). We get about 500K messages a month, so a solid desktop will do us.
(Looking at Dell 3.2GHz, 1GB) Question: Since I only run Imail and Declude
on the box, are there any issues that make XP or Win2000 a better operating
system? (We have campus licenses for both, so cost and availability are not
problems.)
Unless they've changed something, XP is a workstation OS, and as such is limited to 10 client connection at a time. I don't know it that only applies to Windows network connections, or incoming connections for any service.
If the debate is Windows Server 2003 vs. Windows server 2000, I'm not sure there's a big different either way, though I'd probably install on WinServer 2003 if given the choice.
