I have to second Steve's question here. I myself am looking to
transition my hosting company to total MacOS X based systems and I
simply cannot accept the future headache of constantly having to
rebuild mailboxes and such - seems like utter silliness to me. I've
never had to do this with my linux/bsd servers - why start now, right?
Is this problem THAT prevalent?
The main attraction to moving to MacOS X as a host OS is the ease of OS
updates and the great hardware. But if this comes at a cost of
availability and uptime, I simply cannot make that move. What are the
other hosting companies using MacOS X out there doing? Are you having
to roll your own solutions, bypassing the built-in server admin and
update features? What are your experiences here? Note, I'm talking
about pure webhosting/email/ftp/dns - no fileserver functionalities.

Are there any ESPs here using MTAs running on OS X Server? I use
CommuniGate Pro, which is excellent, but as some may have heard has
just undergone a drastic price change that has effectively priced it
out of the small ISP market, so I'm trying to find out what can
replace it at the next need to upgrade...
I take it that ESPs with many hundreds of domains (each domain having
mail users maintained by the domain owners via a control panel) can't
use OS X Server' mail setup, as it seems to not support multiple
domains each with their own users sets, unless I'm missing something?
