I looked at it briefly and used it a little.

Its a very promising SBS solution.
I like the kolab features such as an option to enable archiving of all email. 
It allows you to select how many years you want to keep mail for and you can 
also select which mails to keep depending on the size of the attachment.

There's also easy anti-spam integrated and best of all would be the kolab LDAP 
samba integration.

It certainly has some nice tempting things.

What I don't like is:
- you need to subscribe/purchase subscription for many updates such as 
Intrusion detection, anti-spam, anti-malware etc etc. Without that its not as 
useful.
- Doesn't support 64bit yet.
- Doesn't support virtualisation yet.
- Based on CentOS(not a train smash but I prefer ubuntu).

Let me know your thoughts.
