Ok, anonymous - now I see clearer :) From your initial description with
Domain Controller setup and running Exchange I had the impression you
are speaking of a bigger environment.

So if you need a GUI frontend for mail server administration
http://www.kerio.com/kms_home.html might be worth a check and test. It
is Sendmail based, virus checking is available, it has a simple GUI and
is available for Windows[tm] as well as Linux. It is no "all-you-want"
groupware solution, but speaking about Linux environments there are a
couple of free and easy products available. Just do a quick search at
http://freshmeat.net.

The SuSE mail server product might be worth a test for you. For small
environments with admins not knowing much about mail and servers it
might be a valid choice. As long as it runs. Starting to get problems
with it, it might quickly become a pain (feedback by people having to
administer such machines).
