Thanks again,
I've been looking around, but in the end I think I will want to go for
a small Linux box or perhaps just install Linux in a vmware shell on

BTW: I found that ArGoSoft had a mail server with unlimited number of
users for free and that was the only product I managed to install in a
matter of minutes.
Thanks,
Søren
