Ivan, Linkers,
When it comes to people who administer such systems, I think Craig
had missed the one or two good apples in the barrel of bad ones ;)
Its all horses for courses - I think Exchange, Notes and Groupwise
all have their places, as do postfix, sendmail, gnupop3d and teapop.
When dealing with customers and recommending solutions, I find that
its very worthwhile to give weight to any installed system(s) that
the customer is familiar with. If the customer is comfortable with
the system, they have a better chance of understanding what they are
doing, and a better chance of any training 'sticking'.
