What is that? That when that box was implemented none of Cobalt's
offering had the CPU needed to run everything that box does. It
runs much more than just mailing-lists.
Cobalt has never claimed that their product offerings will do
everything you need from a general purpose server. I'm not
going to really go into a long discussion about what a server
appliance is and how Cobalt's products are positioned with
hardware and intended use.
