I'm looking for the one with least administrative overhead (since I run a one man show) and security is a big issue. Also, I'm looking for some guidance (choices) for POP, IMAP and webMail interface as well as Virus and SPAM (preferably free) protection. Another issue is the FreeBSD version. Should I stay with the 4.x-STABLE or should I go with the 5.x. If I set up a 5.2-Release, will the upgrade to 5.3-STABLE be enough, or is there a possibility that I will have to reformat and do a clean 5.3 install. 10x ahead -- <>
