It would be if my server wasn't setting on a DMZ off the firewall.  But with
all the problems of IM and NAT right now, it's not a workable solution.  If
I could just configure IM to use an ODBC connection, it would make my life
much simpler.  I understand IPSwitch wanting to tie IM to Imail as far as
users go.  It makes sense and I have no problems with that, but I can't
think of too many operations out there who don't operate publicly accessible
servers on some sort of DMZ with NAT/PAT going on.

Since I want to run this only inside our corporation (not on the DMZ), I
wanted to install this application on an internal machine that doesn't set
on the DMZ and point it to my existing Imail MySQL database for the users,
etc.
