Hi,

I'm looking at Qmail as an option for providing E-mail for an ISP, that
should be able to scale to hundreds of thousands of users. I have three
questions on Qmail:

  - If system usernames/passwords are avoided (authentication instead
    being done by Radius), is there any upper limit on the number of
    users Qmail can handle?
  - Noting that a common Qmail strategy is based around using NFS
    and server farms (front-end for SMTP/POP servers, back-end for
    mailstores), is it straightforward to have multiple mailstores (i.e.
    split mailboxes between NFS mounts)?
  - Any offers on the largest Qmail installation to date (number of users'
    mailboxes etc.)? The Qmail web site mentions that Qmail is used for
    hotmail's *outgoing* E-mail, but there is no mention of what Hotmail
    use for delivering mail to user's mailboxes.

Thanks in advance.

cheers,

Andrew Richards.
