just saying hello

[Rudy Gevaert <Rudy.Gevaert@ugent.be>]

Hi,

I just found out of this list.  I'm currently setting up a pilot with 
Zimbra NE.

Our current setup, cyrus based, exists of about 44.000 accounts and a 
couple of hundred Exchange accounts.  The cyrus setup consists of 6 
mailstores connected to an EMC CX400 and CX500.  On two sites we have 3 
mailstores. We use the Cyrus replication engine to replicate each site 
to the other site for DR.  Currently 2TB in use on the masters.  Because 
of the replication we have also 2TB on SATA disks.
Our users use Horde webmail, IMAP, POP, ...
We have perdition for imap/pop routing. Linux LVS loadbalancing for HA 
for the proxies and webmail servers.

We don't have a calendering system, nor shared mailboxes, nor mobile 
support.  (Except IMAP idle.)

I'm a big Cyrus fan :).  All in all our setup is stable and mature.

But because of the lack of support for mobiles, calendering, shared 
mailboxes we are looking at Zimbra.

We have a small Exchange setup, but that is supported by an other group. 
 We are looking at Zimbra as an alternative.

We also use Ironports as edge MTA and do spam scanning on them.

That's it for now.  I hope to find this list helpful and maybe I can 
even be helpful after some time.

Rudy
