When talking about the "Scalix Linux-based Mail Server" the word Scalix is not a verb, it is a noun. Words don't necessarily have their own word form predefined in the English language it mostly depends on how the word is used within a sentence. In this case Scalix is not a verb.
"I scalix every morning" would be using it as a verb or "I am scalixing"

Personally I prefer to use it as a descriptive word, eg. Scalix server (Scalix servers), Scalix installation (Scalix installations), etc.

:oops:
OK, I was just showing off my Latin....but.....
As its not in the Oxford Dictionary I could argue it could be a noun and a verb, much like the word "park" or "shop"...that could be a verb and a noun I guess?
Anyhow....I am sure you are often scalixing?
