For large mail stores you don't necessarily want to run it on a real server (IE a VM or server hosted in a DC) because you typically have limited storage. I have 5GB of archived email and my main mail server in Germany has 480G of RAID-1 storage shared with many other people and no good options for increasing it. While my email would only be 1% of the storage, it's one of many decisions that saved 1% each and add up to the system continuing to run with sufficient free space. For my home server I can just add more storage whenever I feel like it. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
