Hi, I made a lot of test, but i didn't made a comparison list. It's a good idea anyway.

The guys from SmarterTools are not new in the business and are "hungry" to push and develop their products. I decided to sell ICS and SmarterMail in the future. SmarterMail will be the new "20 minutes solution" and the "affordable Mail Server" for future and existing customers. I sent a huge feature request list to their support a few weeks ago. Some will implemented soon, others in the version 3.0. I somebody wants to know more about the feature requests, please contact me off-list. This place is not the right place to discuss this, i guess. ============================================ Am Donnerstag, 27.
