hello to all
there are less than 10 people that would be using the file server.
there would be about 40 people using the email server.
I can only give you my experience: been using SME since version 4.
Never had a problem with it. Once a harddrive crash but good backup policy with rsync and snapshots had me up and running in less then a couple of hours.
I recently killed my test SME7.0 as I plan to upgrade the ol' faithfull 6.01, which I have to blame on myself for not reading the manual....
Anyway, we trust our business (> 15 persons) in SME. Fully. And 7.1 will touch earth here very soon!

Yes, we're very happy with this fabulous piece of work.
Come to think of it, it is donation time...
