        That's a nice setup, remind me to do that when I upgrade my mail
server.  However, for RL I think it would be a bit of overkill.  Of the
journaling options available I would pick ext3 because it is the more
stable, robust and least intrusive of the options.  

        [Now, to keep this from degenerating into a holy war, I am not saying
that ext3 is the best one.  As far as I have been able to tell they all
(ext3, ReiserFS, XFS & JFS) work very well and are good enough for
production.]
