SuSE has done a good job adding new features to their mail server product.
That being said, I've never used the thing, but have followed the press
releases in case I was ever allowed to dump Exchange.  

What impresed me originally was they picked postfix, openldap, and cyrus
IMAP (plus SuSE linux) for it.  I had to build a single-use app for 
an email server (minus the web front end), and after a bunch of research
I used the same pieces.  It could just be that I'm vain, but I like
their components anyway.

They have a demo at http://www.suse.com/us/business/products/openexchange/Online_Demo.html
