It could be a solid-state disk, but even 16gb models of those are getting "small" now. That would moot the arguments about seek times and whatnot, but that's not really the point here... I don't know if I'd bother with more partitions. It's good to make sure an overgrowth of logs don't break something else on the system, but when it's *just* a mail system, there's not a lot else to break. At the very least I'd be more worried about having redundant disks, so you don't get knocked out due to an inevitable disk failure. (I assume this system is considered to be somewhat "important" to keep up and running).
