Thanks, Mouss, you've been a strong voice on the lists ever since I joined. Do you recommend against SQL email storage in general? If so, what about SQL storage for virtual mailbox and virtual alias databases? Do you know of any implementations of something like GlusterFS for a mailbox storage scheme? (I am trying to devise a redundant storage system for my email; a mysql cluster was one possibility, but I too don't much like the idea as the cluster doesn't seem very fast. I'm testing with DNS right now and it seems to be doing all right, but I am starting to feel like it isn't fast enough for a write-heavy service like email. Gluster would be better perhaps, but it's in heavy development. Although, that can be a good thing. And I'm already leaning towards it as a good replication & syncing technique for web server data... ) Thoughts, anyone? Thanks much, all readers.
