let us say 20 per day per user so 20 x 3,00,000. Aproximate.
Oh only that many messages? OK you could easily get away with something
like a HP DL380G4, use at least 2G ram, I'd use 2x36G 10K rpm scsi in raid
1 for OS and server software dir, then 1x72G 10K rpm scsi for /var/log and
1x36G 15K rpm scsi for /var/spool, and 2x300G 10K rpm scsi in raid 1 for
/home (assuming your mail store is under home)
If you use Qmail your /var/spool becomes /var/qmail.
If using MailScanner with spam assassin and anti virus, I'd suggest a ram
drive as well, use in this case 4G ram, with 2G locked for ramdrive.
For 300K messages a day, the above will give you plenty of room to grow
as it will easily process far more than 300K.

How much mail do you envisage processing per day?
