Interesting. It was only a bit more than 10 years ago that I gave up  
running my own mail server. It seemed like more and more nobody would  
accept mail from me. Of course that was a different world email-wise.  
I'm not sure if this is an option or not. I mean now-a-days I don't  
even have a truly static IP address and (as far as I can tell) there's  
no way I can get one from Comcast. In fact my current Comcast address  
happens to be on a couple of block lists. No idea why, and it doesn't  
matter at the moment.

Is there a "short answer" as to what Zimbra is and how it's different  
than running sendmail or postfix?
