Run Your Own Free Enterprise Mail Server
During an economic down turn, why spend thousands of dollars buying commercial mailserver software or even pay monthly/annual fees for e-mail service? When you could use Open Source software to run your own free mail server. If you already have unused server hardware capable of running Linux or Vmware ESXi, you're a step closer to enjoying significant costs savings!

I was searching for a backup solution for my guest virtual machines on my VMware ESXi host. The solution had to be a free solution at the moment since we had a temporary spending freeze on our IT budget. I was fortunate though to have come accross this article covering cool free tools to use for Virtualization. One of the products the author talked about was a free backup solution for ESX server created by Trilead.com called VM Explorer. The free version allows backing up virtual machines on an ESXi host, whereas the paid version allows scheduling backups.

ESXi is a type 1 hypervisor, which directly communicates with server hardware. This was the primary reason why I decided to use ESXi instead of VMware server.
