I think that's a pretty safe rule of thumb: moving from Unix-based to
MS-based solutions tends to be a step backwards (for all parties
involved but MS.) :)
I run numerous small-business mail servers on Linux. I cannot imagine
doing that without BIND running on the same machine, as spam-checking
requires many DNS lookups. I heard some time back that MS Exchange does
not work with a nameserver on the same machine! What a mess.
