Thanks Ted.

It is a production mail server and I understand your worries, The storms

don't happen here so flooding is not an issue. Slow internet is but that's

not a biggie either.

It's just me really, mixture of keeping it sort of cheap and a liking of

running my own domains here. Other than spammers it's not a big turnover

megabits wise. I don't use MAPI either, just IMAP and SMTP.

It will be a while though as I have, like most of us, too much to do.

I don't trust google is another answer. They have been found less than good

with WIFI and to trust them with data is a no.

This is an FAQ, and it is not a simple answer. Exchange does a bunch

of things that no other mail server does, and it does a lot of things

differently than any other (Perhaps you've heard "MAPI Bad, SMTP

Good?" That's not just snarky, it's years of painful experience.)
