But not intel mac (yet, v. soon). And no 64 bit builds yet. And no Solaris, yet.

You also provide the source. Trying to support an install on Windows is a huge undertaking, especially for an OS that's going to cost the user much extra on Licensing fees anyway.

no postfix on windows, so it's a non-starter

Hobbyists are free to compile the source on anything they want, and they'd be happy with that. An Enterprise is going to most likely dedicate a machine to running Zimbra. If they're dedicating a machine to it, then they shouldn't have any problem choosing from the list of what Zimbra already supports.
That's why I think that spending dev time on other platforms is a waste. I could be wrong -- enterprises may want to stick with their standard server environment -- but I think for the most part (for Linux), that's RHEL anyway. If there were to be any other, it would be SuSE.

Actually, we see a lot of debian requests - SuSE is much more prevelant in Europe, I think.
And we've got one guy running it on his own hand-rolled distro. Though the setup wasn't exactly smooth...
