My customers who run Exchange have high failure rates as well, and many
are asking about a Postfix or Sendmail frontend to keep the mail moving
in times of failure. I'm working on a Postfix/Squirrelmail combination
at home and am thinking about making something robust enough to replace
those systems with, while still keeping the end-user experience similar
enough to cause minimal ripples.
Has anyone done this or have suggestions?
