 Zimbra on Solaris
Hi all
You definitely have my vote to port Zimbra to Solaris. My company is testing the Open Source edition of Zimbra as an Exchange replacement, using RHEL4. It works just fine - and once we're all happy we will move to the 60-day NE trial, and once the kinks are all ironed out (user migration etc.) we are looking at purchasing maybe 400 licenses. Yes, I believe that's real cash for the Zimbra people who are following the money.
Anything as critical as mail should run on a proper enterprise-class OS, andSolaris is that in spades, and their new hardware is some serious bang for the buck.
If Zimbra had a Solaris port you would definitely see some heavy-weights taking it very seriously, people are dying to move off Exchange, and they will pay $$$. Seriously guys, wake up to the possibilities here. You have a fantastic product (except for HTML signatures ;-) ), make the transition.
