(And we're not about to write our own MTA just so that we can run on Windows. There are plenty of good MTAs out there. Port postfix to Windows, and then we can talk.)
Suggestion is that, don't make it so much dependent on the MTA. I understand there is a great community doing amazing stuffs on Opensource MTA's like Postfix , but if the build is made such that it works on any platform, any popular OS (Already there with Linux/mac) makes it a lot more flexible and revenue oriented toooo. watever zimbra is doing is just amazing. Qmail is my personal favorite on the MTA front.
