Does anybody have a solid tutorial on Zimbra installation? I've tried just about ten different tuts and always end up with a random issue during install that causes it to not start etc.

I never used Zimbra, but I found these resources that might help you:

Let me know if that helps.

I may be a bit premature in saying this, but it appears that a 1Gb droplet or less droplet will run out of memory during installation. Testing on a 2Gb droplet atm... will report back.

Yes. Zimbra required 2GB few years ago when I tried it.

Have you ever considered SOGo, in lieu of Zimbra?

I am using Zimbra for the last 5 years and I must say its solid .Zimbra installation guide http://www.zimbra.com/support/documentation/zcs-ne-documentation.html#zcs-ne-8-0 would be enough for installing.
