i386 --> means it's designed specifically for basic intel architecture based on the 80386 (or 386 computers)
i486 --> goes up to architecture for 80486 (486 and above computers). NB: 386s might have problems with some of this
i586 --> as above but designed for Pentiums and above. Pre-Pentiums may have problems.
i686 --> Pentium II and above.
The only issue you would run into by using different ix86 binaries on most of today's systems (and certainly any that you would use as a Zimbra server!) is if you somehow got a 64bit binary on a 32bit OS.
