K,

Have you considered switching to an Intel Platform running Linux?

Try ->

        - Dual 2Ghz P4
        - 1 Gig Memory
        - Raid 0+1 (Disk space depends upon user base needs)
        - 1000bT NIC

You should be able to support 10k - 15k mailboxes; probably more.

If you receive any other sizing numbers from the List., please post -
Thanks.

Subject: upgrade help

Hey guys!

I am still tuning my server Solaris 2.7 Sendmail 8 cyrus 2.0.16

Looks like I just need bigger server.
I changed the config to look locally for .forwards rather than
$Home/.forward. My cpu is still at 100% use.
I am seeing 70% user 21% kernel 0.0% io 0.0% swap

lmtpd,sendmail,deliver, are all the big users

The box is Ultra 5 1 400Mhz 384 Megabytes memory.

What would be big enough to support 2000 users of imap & large files?
Here's my mailstats:
