Downloaded both 602LAN Suite & Surgemail.

I immediately took a dislike to Surgemail due to it opening a stack of ports and downloading stuff from "home" - I hit the ZA stop button till I sussed out what it was up to (which seems kosher enough now). Configuration looks a pain in backside. I guess it's probably very wizzy for a mail server, but I'm not going to give it the chance (bit OTT for my simple needs).

602LAN Suite was very easy to set up, didn't surprise me with anything.
It looks like a great software alternative for people to use instead of MS ICS.
I'm just using it as a POP mail aggregator, so I haven't configured the other proxies to run. The only thing missing which would make this a perfect little bundle is support for IMAP.
