[Chester LUG] Mail servers

[Les Pritchard]

I've used a combination of my own services and Google. Like Mike says, the
Google / Office 365 services are just so easy to use. For my own servers
I've used a variety of systems over the years including a good old Sendmail
server. A few years back I looked at all the 'Exchange alternatives'
available as I'd rather not have to build it all myself, especially the
Activesync (push email) services. After trying out quite a few, I ended up
with Axigen. It is a commercial product, but it catered for my main needs
of IMAP and push email. It's a simple out of the box install.
