Tagging @axigen
Thanks for the tag and for documenting so well the simple installation steps of Axigen.
Try accessing the WebMail interface from your mobile phone. You will be presented with the Mobile WebMail interface Freshly redesigned in Axigen X.
Also, you may "Switch to the Standard WebMail" in the desktop login page for a pure-HTML version of our WebMail that would give legacy clients (read IE -9) a taste of what web-based email could be if they upgrade to 2016's Chrome/Firefox/IE ;).
Another note could be to mention that the firewall rules you documented do not cover the open of IMAP(s) and POP3(s) ports. Also, Axigen's default 7000 port is for telnet-like management of the server.

What no Edge support?

Actually... It is fully supported. See here in the Supported Web Browsers section at the end of the page.

I was simply poking fun - Edge is still a pretty hard browser to use full time, i.e. I rarely use it.

Well Axigen is prepared for the moment when Edge will be a bliss to use... When(if)ever that moment will come...

How hard is it to configure LDAP/AD authentication?

An in that vein, does it integrate into Azure AD?

This would be awfully nice to see.
-
Active Directory and OpenLDAP are listed as supported. They appear to require an extra plugin.

We think it is easy.
You can use an OpenLDAP or ActiveDirectory.
OpenLDAP / Active Directory integration can be used for (all or some)
- Accounts & groups synchronization
- LDAP authentication
- LDAP based routing
See more here.
In a multi node configuration, Axigen can also make use of an internal distributed user database for routing and authentication. More details here. This is especially useful for @Service-Providers that require horizontal scalability and do not need the integration with an external user database.

Only integration with AD requires an extra plugin.

We do not support integration with Azure AD but we do support integration with your on-premise AD (2008 and 2012).

Many of us have moved or are thinking of moving to Azure AD, it is a major thing in the SMB space.

Noted. I'll push this to Product Management. By the way, let me introduce our Product Community, managed by our Product Manager. This is where we stay in touch with users of our product that would like to request features.

By the way, did anybody notice the Gravatar integration in our WebMail? If you are receiving an email from an email address that is registered with Gravatar, you will see in the message pane the thumbnail of the sender.

That's interesting - but how many people actually want that?
When my boss saw that you could integrate Facebook into Outlook, she was none to happy. I see all of this social integration as a West Coast thing, but the rest of the country doesn't really want/care about it from a business point of view.

I do. It's just a single picture, not really that big of a deal....

I think it is a global thing and a gap in business thinking for some old school businesses in less progressive markets. Business is social and most of the world knows that. Facebook is very different than Gravatar. Do I want FB in my email, no, but Gravatar, yes. It's a universal email-based visual identity system. It helps make you more efficient and personalises a system that is often seen as impersonal. The same reason that avatars are critical in an online forum, they matter in email the same way. They make recognition and connection faster and stronger.
