Hi,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I would most likely only offer OWA, maybe POP3 and IMAP.
However, I am not sure about RPC over HTTP. We do not have, nor plan to have
in the near future, an ISA server.

I hope that I may get away with:
CPU = high-end celeron or P4
RAM = 1GB
HDD: not sure, but I imagine just IDE as I doubt this is essential.

This may be naïve but I can only hope...

Cheers,
Adrian
