Hi guys,

This is perhaps not so much a matter of Squirrelmail discussion but I hope
you don't mind my asking here since the audience (being mail server
administrators) is perfect.

Could you guys let me know what kind of user base you have on a single
machine running Squirrelmail frontend? If you could specify exim/sendmail
that would be useful too.

I'm currently running with about 1000 users and already seem to see some
server strain - this seems a bit low but I AM on a virtual private server
(root access to a shared server).

I was wondering if I could expect to have say 10,000 users checking their
mail on my machine before I need to get into server farms etc.

Research brought up a few posts on google groups stating servers with LOADS
of users...then they specify like 600. =-/

Would it make it much more efficient if i split the html front end from the
mail server? Ie have a dedicated IMAP machine which communicates via a LAN
to the apache squirrelmail front.

Thanks for any information advice!
Daniel
