I've been to a number of customers that have significantly sized Zimbra 
deployments and they seem to all be pretty happy. My one observation is that 
the company seems to change hands quite a bit which would bother me as a 
manager if I were making this decision.

What's the impetus for moving in-house? Have you looked at something like BPOS 
or Google Apps which offers the calendaring integration? 

Thanks,
Brian Desmond

I know that a major medical research facility in Seattle just started 
implementing Zimbra - my wife works there. She's liking it for the integration 
of calendars and tasks with email, though she misses the ability in Thunderbird 
to make up templates for standard emails.

OTOH, this is a very new implementation, and they're having a brown bag 
presentation this week to explain more about how to use it, so she might well 
find out that templates can be set up.
