I have never heard of anyone using Exchange on a non-Windows machine, and I can't see much point. The license fee for Exchange swamps the OS license. I expect you could run VMWare with Windows as a guest OS, but for something as critical as your mail server, I would dedicate a Windows machine to it. I doubt it would work with WINE. Basically, if you have to hold your nose to run Exchange, you may as well hold it a little tighter and run Windows. If not, look at FreeBSD/Sendmail-or-Postfix/Evolution as a very reliable mail service. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
