depends on which machines update the bayes DB. From what I understand the current idea is to nfs mount the bayes DB's readonly so only one system updates it (the one where it's on a local filesystem).
The problem seems to be with file locking on writes.

The expected growth is to go from 100's of thousands of users to perhaps millions.... and each user would have about 8 mailboxes each, with separate username/password combinations. Most likely using Qmail as the MTA.
It would seem that, to accomplish this with SA, you'd need to deploy yet more boxes to spread the load (layer switching) of SA queries, at the very least - but how to share the DB?

I've been asked to design a fairly large email gatewaying system, for which antispam measures are required.
How many mailboxes are we talking about and what type of growth..
