We had a Zimbra groupware server in company and it just worked about right. We
had a perdition proxy to access it, but whether I accessed it directly from
the internal network (using a different port, cause the other port is reserved
for the proxy connection) or from extern, it just worked.
As to the exact credentials required, I suggest you ask your ISP. I think I
had the full mail address as passwort, but I am not entirely sure. If the ISP
is not willing to help you to setup with at least one widely known MTA – maby
icedove aka thunderbird – I would choose a different one.
Still, not Zimbra to blame for any incompetence on the side of the ISP.
