its not about "not thinking" its about having a series of solutions to
match a business need or desire that integrate with eachother. telling
me that im "and then you're be another administrator who never took
the time to understand the underlying technologies, with no derived
skills to troubleshoot problems and no study why other parts/daemons
might be better suited for your particular needs."

when the exact nature of what i am doing is just that. I know a lot,
but there is never going to be a point when i have all the answers and
i like that. i want to be able to find and learn something new cause
if i don't ill be bored as hell. and how do you know what i do or dont
know? just because id like to find something that will make my day
easier? or even better see a real competitor in the market as an
alternative to Lotus exchange or Small Business server?

and just because its there doesn't make it the right choice but an
alternative. its still my responsibility to decide whats the right mix
of features and needs.
