I have an exchange server and an AD domain in VMs that I use when I
have to do testing for clients, but for the rest of the time, I am
VERY happy with Ubuntu server at home running everything that I want.
I have IMP for webmail, and that's very quick and easy to use. It took
a bit of time to setup but at the same time, I am very happy with the
outcome, and it means that I don't have any MS licensing hassles.
