I may have missed this if it was discussed.  But my last conversation with IPSwitch is that as a current user of IMail I can continue to purchase support and keep getting updates to the IMail portions without going to the new product.  The person told me that the Collaboration Suite will still use the IMail core so IMail will continue to be developed as a product.  I just can not purchase IMail by itself anymore. 
 
So my understanding is that IMail will still be updated for existing users.
...sure, for a 40% increase in cost for your support contract, and absolutely no guarantee that they won't again cancel the product like they did a couple of months ago, only to offer a concession with this huge increase in price for a product that they have indicated clearly wouldn't be marketed to anyone but existing customers and new purchases would have to be negotiated by calling them on the phone and proving to them that you are worth their time.

This was nothing but a way to recover some of the money that they were clearly going to lose by not offering the option at all.  Don't be a sucker for their game, at least know what you are getting.  This is the same company that claimed that their customer base was "clamoring" for a a collaboration suite and mandatory bundling with Symantec AntiVirus that required a repurchase of the software for $6,000 dollars (unlimited users) and a yearly support contract of $4,000 after that.

Please don't get me started :)
