Thanks for the feedback. WRT multi-server, do you know if it supports
distributed subdomains (e.g. tucson.mydomain.com, denver.mydomain.com, etc.)
with servers in different cities or just a local multi-server cluster? Haven't
had the time yet to delve into this.

of Zimbra is no connectors for iPhone, BB, and I think maybe even Outlook.
This makes the free version a non-starter for my client's needs, since they
have lots of roaming laptop users, some of whom will be using Outlook. And the
paid-for versions ain't cheap.
