Hi,

I have followed on the Courier maildir discussion's. We are considering moving our mailstore to a FAS230, out mail system is Postfix and Cyrus. Both mail server (HP DL380) and the Netapp have dual NIC's and the switch an HP procurve 2824, so our options are:

1. Trunks on both side, using NFS. 2. VLAN's using a separated subnet for NFS with jumbo blocks, NFS locks will not be an issue, as only one mail server is accessing the mailstore. 3. VLAN's using a separated subnet for iSCSI with jumbo blocks

While number 3 seems the most logical, I am not familiar with iSCSI, especially on Debian. I am also not sure how well this will scale if I have other systems using the iSCSI VLAN (for MS-SQL and other application. Any comments or references will be most welcome.

Thanks

Gil
