Hi Guys,

I am wondering how many users I can fit on my RaQ3 (512MB).

I am selling email accounts with no disc space for web or ftp. So, just email. I have about 30 vdomains total, but only 7 of them are my "email address" selling accounts.

I will be setting the emails to forward to an existing email address, so hopefully no email will reside on the server for too long.

The Cobalt Knowledge Base says "We don't have a hard user limit set. We generally don't recommend that you have more than a few hundred users, but we have tested configurations with up to 1000 users. (50 sites each with 20 users)"

This seems vague. I am hoping my users will be closer to the 1000 than the 200.

Any ideas?

The most we have on a RAQ3 (with RAQ4) software is almost 250. We have not had any trouble. But then again, we only run a few sites on that server.

Before that we had this same site on a RAQ2 with about 200 users. It was on a server with 150 web sites too. The only issue we had is that after we would add or delete users, the user list would die. This is when we moved it.
