A few weeks ago I was reading an article in Inc.com magazine that talked about a company called Backcountry. They are an online retailer of high end gear for outdoor enthusiasts. In one section of the article, the owner of the company mentions that they have grown to adopt open-source solutions as a cost-effective means to conduct business. Although not very surprising, what sparked my interest in the article the most was the mention of enterprise solution they selected for email, a product called Zimbra. How could it be that I had never heard of this software? Egads, I must know more about it and so my adventure begins.
