Hello abhaycshukla,

Thank you for your contact.

We do not have "native" sensors for Zimbra, but you can create a custom exe / script or SSH sensor instead. I found this example in the knowledge base that might be applicable.

If the server has an HTTP interface, you can use a script to regularly update an XML file accessible via HTTP and PRTG can monitor that file for you. The file must be compatible with the format required by PRTG.
Further details on integration with custom sensors can be found in our PRTG Demo here or in the PRTG web interface under "Setup | PRTG API".

For any other questions or difficulties, we are happy to help.

Best regards,
Sebastian
