Not that I'm about to dump IMail tomorrow or anything like that, but I recently purchased Smartermail http://www.smartertools.com. It seems to be a promising solution, plus Declude is going to support it.
I'm in the process of evaluation an iMail replacement. SmarterMail is Ok, but I could not shake the feeling that it really hasn't matured yet. For example while setting up my test domain, I was able to add an alias for the domain. During the add process there was a check box to compare the MX record for what I was entering. I said "no", since for testing purposes I wanted to deliver directly to the host name. A few days later, I wanted to add another domain alias. The MX confirmation check box was gone, and I couldn't add the alias because there was no MX record for it. Other little interface management issues were also annoying.
Testing for kerio mail (http://www.kerio.com/kms_home.html) has gone very well, and there's much to recommend this product -- not the least of which is that it integrates with my chosen AV program (Sophos), as well as some others. My test users like the Outlook integration that makes it much less expensive alternative to Exchange or GroupWise, with giving up functionality for my POP3/IMAP users. It also has some anti-spam capability, but is not as granular as Declude.
Merak is also on my list to be tested.
