I would hope it would be OK to compare options on this list! :-) Is MacOS X Server a good fit for these needs, or is it not? How does this product offer advantages over MacOS X Server?

Of course it is valid to compare options here.

As for iTools, it offers many of the same features OS X Server does, at lest in terms of Internet services. Where OS X Server scores in in it's File Sharing, user management, and collaborative services.

Another option is George's Exim/FTP/MySQL/Courier system at http://maxo.captainnet.net/installs/index.html. It offers the advantages of not using system accounts at all, but stores all user account info in MySQL for its Internet services. And it scores in that it uses exim, perhaps the best MTA on the planet (IMNSHO).
