Hello,

I'm building a Webserver to provide e-mail and virtual domain hosting
for some of my clients.

I know hardware requirements are highly variable depending on HTTP and
FTP storage, Traffic and number of e-mails but what is a good rule of
thumb for hard drive capacity on a per user basis?

I'm looking at hosting 100 basic virtual domains and a few hundred
e-mail accounts to start.
How much disk space should I allow for e-mail and log files?  I don't
plan on implementing mailbox size limits.

Thanks,
