Gordano did this to their customers who were using their NTMail product. What started out as a ($795) great email server
evolved into a ($20,000) buggy piece of (poorly supported with very high $ service contracts) junk and many of their customers
left it for other products (as did I). When I switched to IMail (with the Declude AV/JunkMail) I found a solution that was priced
right, stable, and well supported. Now it looks like IPSwitch is making the same mistake and I am going to have to look for another
email server vendor. They had been talking about this colaboration feature being an add on to keep people from dumping IMail
before they were ready to sell this "new" product. This was very unethical and really stinks!!

ABSOLUTLY NOT!

Add-on product, yes. Packaged replacement, no.

There is no way I can afford $4000 as a small business ISP to upgrade my
current Imail server. Not now, not a month from now, not 6 months from now.
