FWIW, We're running Windows 2003 server with imail gateways on 4 inbound MX servers for MS Exchange 2003 We process about 300,000 messages per day. No problems here.
Actually, we've been talking about moving the OS back to Windows XP workstation. Since we only use iMail as a gateway relayer, there's no need to run IIS. There's no issue with more than 10 concurrent sessions so why waste the Server license when we can just use a workstation license?
