At this point, I would not feel comfortable offering email accounts to
users.  That comes with an entirely different, larger support requirement
and unless we're going to generate revenue from it, it's not something we
can currently support.

http://www.egroupware.org/
http://www.phpgroupware.org/
http://www.tutos.org/

among others.

One thing I am not willing to do is adopt a "if you build it, they will
come" approach.  We don't have the infrastructure to support those sorts of
luxuries at this point.  There are enough things that we (as a team) want
that should take priority over pie in the sky type things.  If nobody is
willing to champion the wiki cause, then we must not need one.
