Just be careful about Linux because it has a maximum 2G file size (size for
a single file).  This can get in the way of some search engines which build
large random-access files that exceed 2G.  But it should not pose any kind
of a problem for mail, especially if MAILDIR format is used.

I understand that Free BSD and Linux are the overwhelming choices of the
Internet pornography industry.  That is a good technical figure of merit,
because it means these servers are stable (for HTTP) when getting lots and
lots of hits.

If Free BSD breaks the 2G limit, I'd go with Free BSD.

What's is the best OS for run Qmail (and/or Ezmlm)? What advantage and
disadvantage has each one? I'll need send two millions mails per day and
I don't know what hard can I buy? :)


Thanks very much!
