Hi Stefano, Thanks a lot for your reply. Could you post this reply on the forum? My query is posted at: http://www.mail-archive.com/server-user@james.apache.org/msg08938.html This is because everybody else having a similar query would benefit from your reply. Also if anybody has to add to your reply, he can do so by replying to the same post.
Regarding your reply... Assuming that there is no limit imposed by JAMES, would still there be any limit imposed by operating system depending upon how it stores user/ alias information? E.g. For file based stores you mentioned a limit of 65,000. Can we change this file based storage to something else. As of now I'm using Windows platform, but in the final version I would be using Unix/ Linux. So please advise from that point of view.

You are probably hitting an operative system's file system limitation: e.g: FAT32 supports at most 65000 files per folder. Using file based user store JAMES will use 2 files for each user and 2 files for each alias. > So I want to know whether there is limitation on nno. of users or is > there any configuration parameter that can be changed to overcome this > error. > Please note that there is 15 GB of free disk space on my PC, so not > having enough physical disk space should not be the real problem. > > Secondly, I want to set aliases for all these users to a single user, > say 'ADMIN'. Is there any limitation as to how many aliases can be set? Aliases in james 2.3.1 are particular users: so if you create 10 users and 5 alias for each one you'll end up having 60 users in the user table.
