Thanks to everyone for your feedback. It's been very helpful. I'm actually shying away from having a mail server on the server. Everything that they do is POP3 based and they don't have the typical corporate mentality regarding e-mail. I'm thinking that simpler is better, having been the Exchange route with them already.
Prior to saying we could do this, I had spoken with the person that had first turned me on to TB and his firm is setup in the same manner. With the mailboxes stored on the server, then more than one person can access the mailbox at a time and everything is backed up nightly - to me it sounds like an ideal setup for this client. Unless someone thinks this is foolish. :) Michael T.
