Use Sun Java Communication Suite it's free and better then zimbra.
You get the outlook connector. Zimbra is cool but without a connector is useless except for webmail.

It is nice that you mention why it is better. Also, no one on this thread mentioned they need the outlook connector and probably knew that if they were trying to use Solaris. Useless is a strong word. Not everyone uses Outlook...

Does anybody have a setup guide on building a hardened Solaris 10 production server?

I'm most familiar with FreeBSD so I'm not really familiar with some of Solaris' 'quirks'. To give an idea of the sort of thing I'm hoping for here's the idiots guide I give people for my FreeBSD boxes (minus the make.conf & kernel profile): http://www.samgaw.co.uk/serverguide

Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Cheers.

oh mark, you've turned to the dark side

there are plenty of clients that work without connector, if you really need the pain that is outlook, pay the minimal NE fee! None of the sun software is free really, they just claw the money back elsewhere.

if you're able to, please try the community builds. they're currently here:
Welcome to varlogmessages and will move to the zimbra community site for 5.0.6 release:
SourceForge.net: Zimbra Community Builds

The Solaris builds should be pretty stable and error free now. I intend to submit bug report and full patch with 5.0.6, hopefully we can ask Zimbra nicely to get it in the main codebase - they've been very supportive so far.

Great! But there is NO any download files for solaris on sf.

Yes sorry, I disabled the old Solaris downloads from my site because I'm in process of building new up-to-date packages for sourceforge site. Apologies, will be up in a couple of days.
