Thanks for the suggestion, Richard, but we're very happy with our current mail 
software, and we'd rather use file system quotas to control inbox sizes (our 
mail administrators are a bit hesitant to rely just upon the mail software).

Is having a few thousand file systems still an issue with ZFS? I was under the 
impression this issue was resolved awhile ago 
(http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/message.jspa?messageID=68020#68020). If so, 
we'll just stick to UFS for now.

A few thousand shouldn't be much of a problem -- just a bit longer reboot times. And we're working on making it even faster (so that tens and hundreds of thousands of filesystems works well too).
