Hi,
Just an update for those, who were interesting: our management decided to use a hosted Zimbra server, provided by a local company, who provides this as hosted service.
Technically email+calendar+addressbook+file, even they put some addons, like online editing office documents.
From users' point of view, it just works, as anything else, but not google/microsoft.
All problems outsourced to that company (running, backup, any potential problem), I have one less task (explaining why some of our partners has problems, hunting imaginary problems and non-valid complaints).
We will see, how users happy with this.
Cheers, István

We run our own email server in-house for more than a decade now, started with ClearOS 5.2, it's about 1.2TByte email.
Nowadays we will migrate to higher version of ClearOS with separate cyrus 3.6.x imap, our tests seems fine with 3.6 (squatter works fine) etc.
But. We also try to find a viable hosted email platform, which could provide at least the following key properties: - shared imap folders with ACL (obviously)
- sieve scripts
- imap heavy usage, all emails are on the server
- preferably EU vendor
Limits:
Personally I just start to gather information about the potential solutions, but I did not really convinced yet. I mean, every provider have imap, spamfilter, user/white/blacklist management, support desktop/web/mobile clients (imap, what is the magic anyway) etc. standard features, price and other limits could differ of course.
One potential candidate is Zimbra, which is not really my personal favorite but seems it can share folders between users.
Thank you, I continue my own research too, I will keep you updated (or just let me know to forgot it :)
