does anyone outsource their IMAP ?
We only have a small network of less than 20 users, 3 of which could really benefit from IMAP style email / contact list / calendar sharing.
I've checked exchange hosting companies who typically charge £10 per user per month for around 1GB of mailbox storage. Trouble is only 3 of our 20 users need IMAP facilitiles and as far as I'm aware, it's not possible to mix and match POP3 with IMAP email for one domain. Currently we pay £100+Vat per year for our 20 x pop3 accounts.
I could setup a LAN based IMAP server fairly inexpensively but they really need to connect from anywhere they're on the road and I don't want the hassle of connecting the IMAP server live to the web.
Are there any alternatives I should know about ?
