use LVM
/boot -> 250M
/ -> 10G
/usr -> 3 G minimal ( 3,5 optimal )
/var -> 15G
/home ( here will have vpopmail with domains and users , dependencies:
nr. of users/domains/mail traffic - storage; you must decide how much
space you need )
This is kinda informal and partition setup mostly depend of many
factors, that's why i prefer LVM if i need to make changes
If you don't want to make partitions use simple format with /boot and
the rest in / and if needed in time you can add more space ( new hdd? )
in / if you use LVM

If you don't expect to store more than 90G of mail on the server (which
would take quite a while to accumulate), I would simply use the default
configuration that CentOS (presuming that's your distro of choice)
provides. That default configuration has a separate boot partition, with
LVM on the rest, and one single / partition. Much simpler to manage that
way.
