But as far as multi servers for this (for fault tolerance?) wouldn't a
basic mail server with important files on a RAID be sufficient?

I would certainly say so. The OP seems to be trying to offer high-availability, though, which is different than just making sure your data is not going to get lost.


I
might build my mail server w/ RAID, and ghost it to a back-up drive I
keep in a bomb-proof safe (off-property, of course).

Bomb-proof. Cluster? Nuke? Smart? Laser-guided tactical? The kind that don't hit hospitals and weddings and only hit the bad guys? That must have been expensive. ;)


Seems like your plan would be fine for a small to mid-sized implementation.


I want to know if there sizing for the qmail installation.
I want to build qmail system with the following installations:

MySQL
OpenSSL
Apache
qmail
vpopmail
qmailadmin
Courier-IMAP
SquirrelMail
Qmail-Scanner / Clam AntiVirus / SpamAssassin

I want to use it for about 2500 users.

If anyone know the hardware (server specs.) for that installation. or anyone
has a case like this, Please tell me.

Another question; If I want to build a high availability system like
clusters and load balancing between two symmetric servers, how can I
maintain this ?

Or how can replicate the data (Mysql data and Maildirs) from the two servers
if I cannot build the cluster?

Also If anyone know how to maintain this or has a similar case , Please
advice me.
