I think the best outcome for all is for you to continue making MS a 
flexible "framework". Let the commercial interests deal with pretty 
interfaces, etc. After all, this is what they are selling and competing 
with, a full solution. I am a one man company, and i have managed to 
whip up a fully functioning solution, with a nice web interface. Of 
course, its still a beta and not being sold to the general public.

Also, a little off topic, but of importance to me since i chose to use 
postfix, what do you think will be the future of MS and postfix? I hear 
2.3 will bring in incompatibilities. I would hate to switch MTAs, as 
postfix is really wonderful.
