[BlueOnyx:23553] Re: Office 365

[Brent Epp]

Wow, I just looked up the minimum requirements for Exchange -- you 
weren't kidding!

Most of our mail accounts on BX hosts are using POP, so I don't know 
about handling extremely large files, but the biggest limitation I've 
encountered with IMAP is that dovecot can't handle "inferior mailboxes" 
(subfolders in subfolders in subfolders...) in the default 
configuration.  I would consider this to be fairly critical 
functionality for anyone wanting to use IMAP.

With the latest version of Exchange requiring well over 100Gb of RAM just to operate I don't think you'll be seeing any big movement to it in the SMB marketplace. With them disavowing all knowledge of the 2010 version (the last one truly affordable to small business is the form of the SBS package), there is going to be some sort of rapid shift in the market about to begin. The new Outlook seems to be designed to (without substantial effort) only want to work with the M$ buy here, pay here, used car lot (AKA 365). GSuite doesn't seem like that much better of a bargain, so let's hope this brings us a surge in demand for open-source. That said, how has BX been at dealing 80Gb mailboxes
