I'm VERY excited about this test. 

Not being a fan of greylisting, I believe it should be removed.

I also believe that anti-virus should be moved from the messaging test
and put in the security exam, as e-mail is not the only way for viruses
to enter a system.  IF anti-virus is to stay, then additional antivirus
tools should be included, not just Amavis.  Surely there are other
options to SpamAssassin, as well. 

LDAP integration seems appropriate to me, given it's popularity for
addressbooks and the like.  However, MySQL integration does not seem
appropriate and belongs in another category.

I also believe that authentication mechanisms should be included.  PAM
or similar tools need to be configured and supported for clients. 

Webmail systems such as squirrelmail, Horde, RoundCube and the like
should also be added as clients.

What about iCal and other calendaring solutions?
