Dearjyang,

<I will tip $100 additionally if someone can provide more specific
information on market share of server software used by companies
providing webmail services.>

I'm sorry I failed to mention that I didn't uncover any server
software data for webmail services.  If I do come across this kind of
infomration during my research projects, I'll post the material here.

Thank you
