I need some help setting up an E-mail server. I've done this before but
not something this big. Heres what will need.

1. The server will have about 4000 users and will need room to grow.

2. Each user should have a limet on the amount of E-mail they can store
on the server. I don't know how much space each user will get but lets
use 5mb for now. 

3. This will be a pop3 server.

4. The hardware we were planing on using runs at 400mhz and has a 10gig
drive. I'd like to up that to a 20gig drive. RAM will be 128 or more.

5. We need to transfer user accounts from the failing Windows E-mail
server over to the rocking FreeBSD box. 

That's it! I can setup just about all of it but steps 2 and 5 I know
nothing about. Also, if any of you think this box will not work in any
way or you have a few tips on making it better pleas let me know. The
last thing I want is for 4000 people to call up asking where their
E-mail went.
