Ok, it looks as though cvsup from 4.8 to 4.10 has been successful.
Now, first off I want to say that I want this server to be a second Postfix / Courier IMAP server (our other is on a RedHat server, but that's irrelevant).
I feel that I should go ahead and first upgrade to 5.x and then install Postfix and everything else I will need (e.g., PAM/LDAP authentication, user folders, Samba, etc.). Otherwise, I'm afraid I stop at 4.10 and install all the applications I need, then when I really want to upgrade to 5.x I may find myself in trouble. But I am interested in what the rest of you think.

For various reasons, most of us mere mortals are advised to simply backup and install 5.x to a new disk (or a cleaned one, anyway).
I started to say why ... I find that I can make a list of new features in 5.x, but am not necessarily aware of which features make a complete reinstallation desirable. I do know that you can't use ufs2 unless you reinstall....

So, which of the 5.x should I install? 5.1, 5.2.1, 5.3?
I want to be as Stable as possible.
