I have been using the open source version since the first public beta. I upgraded to Network recently, but I've decided to downgrade when I get a chance because of the user number limitations that I am hitting.

Zimbra is a open source application, they have street cred. The prospect of MS buying them is terrifying, but I think Zimbra has actually gotten to the point that there would be some significant worries about the exchange/zimbra overlap.

Personally, if you believe as I do, sooner or later Microsoft will have to go open source.

So by all means, save a copy of the source code. But don't panic.
