For small installations, I don't think Exchange is really
cost-effective.  It's quite a monster.  Easy to justify in a large
organization where all IT projects are monsters, anyway, but expensive
overkill in a small organization.  Just set up standard SMTP/POP servers
and go with that.  Calendars and the like can be managed just by having
employees talk to each other (in person, on the phone, or by e-mail).

This is especially true if everyone is in the same geographic location.
