[Samba] Samba 4 & Thunderbird Mail Client

[Gaiseric Vandal]

With a properly designed e-mail system, it shouldn't matter if a user's 
hard drive fails.

Also, configuring your e-mail client to be depending on the file server 
and mail server creates more points of failure for your e-mail 
communication.       Learned this the hard way.
