Mail server add-on for ReadyNAS?

I've looked around a bit but can't seem to locate a mail server add-on for ReadyNAS. It looks like all the components are available, from MySQL for the back-end, to PHP to run a web-based front-end, but nothing to tie it all together.

Am I the only one interested in using my ReadyNAS as a mail server?

    I'm looking for an alternative for Micorsoft Exchange.. and this is the closest FREE alternative... but i need help! I never did this stuff on a linux build (building addons etc)... But i do want to try it.. .with the help of a addon-guru.
  • Has Some one been able to get ist working?

    And why has Netgear not responded to the whide request amongst the NAS user's?

    Performance issues?
