There is also an open source version of Zimbra with an active
community.  I'm not familiar enough with Zimbra to know what
parts are proprietary, and what is open.  I do have an ISP
customer who is using it, and we just installed a new Zimbra
system at a client site replacing an Exchange server.

This new site is running CentOS 5.1 with our normal configuration of
OpenPKG servers, with Zimbra running in a VMware virtual machine getting
its messages forwarded internally after processing through the current
versions of postfix, amavisd, and clamav to clean out the virii before they
get to Zimbra.  This allows Zimbra to pretty much own the VM while we
control everything else.

To say that UNIX is doomed is pretty rabid, OS/2 will certainly play a role,
but you don't build a hundred million instructions per second multiprocessor
micro and then try to run it on OS/2.  I mean, get serious.
