The Zimbra Collaborative Suite will not run on Windows. The open source edition will run in: RHEL, Fedora Core 4 and Core 5, Mac OS X, SuSE 10, SUSE 9, Debian, Ubutu, and Mandriva along with the source available to compile on other distributions.

You may want to try it out using VMware which allows you to run any of the above OS options (except Mac OS X) in a window on your current machine.

Default No postfix = no native Windows port

The postfix MTA won't run on Windows, which is why there's no native Windows port and why folks are suggesting VMWare as a workaround. See this forum thread for more info.
