Thats not all, because a "standard" and FREE Mailbox has only 20 MByte, which is in theorie 1, 2 TByte of Diskspace. AFAIK has each Server around 300 GByte (3 x 147 GByte) So it has 5 times more $USER as Diskspace... And YES I have had problems for some month because Viruses with <random_local_part>@freenet.de has hit us... I have gotten around 287.000 Viruses of 163 kByte (I think, you know this size) I have encounterd that my 260 E-Mail adresses at Freenet.de are located on only 17 Servers... ...and I check my E-Mails all 10 Minutes via IMAP. One after on... "courier-imap" is quiet robust, except the MTA... I do not know why, but on high load, like from Viruses, I was runing into trouble with my Server in Paris and around 8.000 $USER on a AMD Athlon MP1900 with 2 GByte of memory and IPC/Vortex Raid-5 with 3x 18 GByte (System) and 6x 147 GByte (Mails). My FileServer at home has nfs-kernel-server, samba, netatalk, apache, proftpd, courier-imap-ssl, courier-mta-ssl, webmail and ssh. Then fetchmail, procmail spamassassin and f-prot. Curently 180 $USER many permanently with ssh. I run a AMD Sempron 2200+ with 512 MB of Memory and 3Ware Raid-5 with 3x 180 GByte (IBM) I can't tell you the load, but it nothing... I think, with 75.000 $USER, you need a Dual Athlon MP2400 with 4 GByte of memory... The load is realy low, but you need VERY good Harddisks > Michael Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)
