  Other than the feeling of 'sitting on a timebomb' are there any other specifics you can cite? Have you looked into contracting someone for a few hours a month to check/update things? I have considered doing what you have done, and your feedback has piqured my curiosity.

    Not really. Just everyone smart I talk to says the same thing as everyone else in this thread: Don't do it. I'm not a sysadmin, I'm a developer who runs a company and doesn't even work in IT in my own company anymore. Bleh. So far so good, though....

  I use iRedMail and have been for 3 years now and I love it. It's really just a collection of scripts and updates are just updates to the underlying packages. Everything is transparent if you want to know what's going on. It takes awhile to get used to all the moving pieces (if you care to even know them as it isn't necessary) but I've found their setup to work very smoothly and be very stable. I'm also a developer, btw. This mail server is only for me so it's not a big deal but if I had to I'd probably be comfortable setting it up for a small business. I wouldn't recommend it for that still, though, since you are the support in that case.
