don't forget Linux. It'll run on virtually any modern Pentium machine and
all PowerPCs. I don't know of any particular email servers for it but I'm
sure they're out there. It's amazing how fast Linux is gaining popularity
(they even have a magazine: Linux Magazine www.linux-mag.com) and there
are tons of software out there for free.

Samba for example is an SMB suite for LInux so that it can communicate
natively with PCs running Windows.

Recently, work was completed on Gnome, a GUI for Linux that has received
rave reviews.

I have yet to install it and try it (as soon as I find some time) but
what I've been reading is very promising and comforting.
