The more memory the better, this goes for all database based systems.
In your setting 1 gig seems to litte.
For spam filtering: it would help to put this on a different machine.
Spam filtering is quite IO intensive
as is DBmail so you might want to do that on a different machine.

Hi All....
Its Friday night and I have to reinstall the mail server...
Basicly I have the following currently.. Postfix / Dbmail 1 /
Postgresql / Amavisd /
on our mail server... I have 700000 odd users with mail boxes ranging
from 0 - 500 mb
We are using the server not only as a mail storage system, but also as
our digital storage system, wich
in turn allows us to run a paperless environment.. all docs stored in
pdf format..
I am looking for sugestions.. any.. before I start.. that could help
me to reach the ultimate mail server..
The machine is a dual xeon 2.4 gig's with 1 gig ram... and a couple of
hundred gigs of storage.. dual 1000 nics..

lot of) to general tips to just make everything
smoother.. any snags I must look at... anyhting..
Kind Regards..
