They are dependent on having a local SMTP server, for example cron requires one to send email containing the stderr output of (presumably failed) jobs. If the zimbra packages declare the appropriate provides, you should be able to re-install cron et al. after installing zimbra.
I see that from the previous email. I have been reinstalling them and
then
checking to see how to keep postfix from starting. After installing cronie, etc. back, postfix was installed. I did postfix stop, but it
said
it was not running. I'll have to look in the start up and see if it is
set
to start on reboot
why trial and error? chkconfig postfix off
are you really have services uncontrolled running instead explicit dsiable or enable them?
chkconfig --list and disable anything you are not using if it comes to servers connected to a network

Hi,
I run a Zimbra server myself.
The correct procedure is to disable the services on startup like so: chkconfig (service) off service (service) stop
(service) being the service name.
Zimbra will install it's own versions of various bits of software and leave them in /opt/zimbra so you don't have to worry about conflicts as such.
The only real issue is to ensure that no other services (such as postfix) are using a port that Zimbra will need to use.
Things such as cron, logwatch etc can be configured to use Zimbra. But it may take a little more configuration than normal.
Hope this helps :-).
