Searching for Idokorro's Mobile SSH turned up a blank as the company has been renamed (I hate that!) into Rove. They appear to have rolled the Mobile SSH product into something called Mobile Admin, and I've taken that for a very short spin.
After the usual install on a Windows server, including dot.net and a SQL [...]
deepOfix is a mail server in a box licensed under the GPL.
deepOfix is LDAP-driven with an OpenLDAP server, brings SpamAssassin and ClamAV support with it and offers Webmail and the ubiquitious SMTP, POP3 and IMAP services.
