My situation: .) A volume of 30/30 Emails (not counting spam or similar) send and recieved per day. .) all emails (incoming/outgoing) are stored for searching purposes. .) all mails should be on the server, accessed via IMAP .) Capable to do a fulltext-search via WEB-Interface, of non/english (latin1) and similar encoding-types. .) spam and virus checking (spamassassin & amavis-ng ?) .) Access should not slow down to much after a couple of months (~1800 Mails per year, to be accessable) .) a little bit of user-masquerading on outgoing mails. .) Plenty of hardware ressources (new machine with 1GB Ram & 1,5 Ghz CPU) but also doing other stuff. Postgresql and mnogosearch with antiword and others are currently under testing, to index word/rtf/dos-word documents with non english encoding from 1995 until now, so i would prefer a sql-database in the background, but if maildir or MH boxes would do the same thing without slowing down after a couple of hundred mails in one box, its fine with me. also, the mails stored in whatever format should be backuped every day in the night, so hopefully it should be possible to extract everything needed to a 4 Gig Dat-Tape (document-archiv & mail-archiv, but not the indexes or other junk from the database to keep it small) exim, postfix, qmail, courier ? amavis and spamassassin ?
