(Original )Information
What do you like best about Mail-in-a-box?

Relatively easy to set up, works right out of the box, administration is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mail-in-a-box?

Technical maintenance can be somewhat difficult, and difficult to recover from if there's a failure, which makes putting this into a production environment risky, unless you're very technical and have the knowledge and experience. Security needs are also somewhat complicated to implement, and deep InfoSec knowledge is important if this is to be used in a production setting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mail-in-a-box solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides an all-in-one self-hosted email solution for anyone who wishes to self-host their own email system. This is particularly useful in sensitive industries, or if you do not wish to rely on cloud services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
