Thank you very much for that input Martin,
I was hoping to get some positive responses (and I did), but I have to

Give me a call if you like Steven. I have set up Mac Mail Servers for
many of my clients over the years. The most recent version of Mac OS X
Server 10.5.5 provides a robust and mature mail service which includes
POP, IMAP, authenticated SMTP and Webmail.
IMAP does most of what you require.

Telstra's operations chief Greg Winn, considered the telco's second-

infamously scoffed that Apple should stick to
