If you plan on running spamassassin I would recommend offloading that to
one or more dedicated boxes running the daemonized spamassassin.

We have two qmail servers here (third one is almost ready) plus we have
three other boxes dedicated to spamd and clamd. (We're using round-robin
DNS of a local zone to distribute spam+virus filtering to the filtering
boxes. This is for 3000-4000 mailboxes ;-)

We are running tcpserver patched with a MySQL patch. We're using vpopmail
with MySQL. (Pretty much everything is running with MySQL, even spamd
preferences and squirrelmail preferences/address books.

We have separate read and write MySQL servers plus replication to a third
box.
