We are processing between 1100 and 1700 emails a day, this may be ramping up in the near future, which is part of the reason for this move. There are no other external apps running on the servers. It would strictly run Imail server and the OS.
The hardware was a system that was purchased for something else but could not handle the I/O that was necessary so we are looking to use it for some critical application to our business that will use to the full potential the cluster, otherwise a huge waste of money (and in my opinion still is,but they want to use it this way instead of using it as 2 separate servers).

Do you use any external apps like Declude? I am just curious as to the load to demand so much hardware - Thanks -Nick Jeff Szusz wrote: >We are going to be rebuilding our Imail server.
