Several replies so far seem to think I made up my mind. I used the word "leaning" only to indicate a default ignorant stance. I'm still very interested in other opinions! Solaris 10 is of course of interest, as are a number of other choices. I have Solaris 10u2 on a system under my desk. The whole mail-server architecture is a sufficiently chewy ball of wax, that it deserves some consideration when committing funds to a setup that will (hopefully) endure for some years. I have to read up on ZFS though, haven't really tinkered with it. If I am just running a conventional bunch of backends with local-attached disks of normal sizes, is ZFS still of benefit to me? ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
