Thanks Jerry! you rock :)

Its for an ISP that will be running cPanel (and of course then Exim)
so that means config is exim.conf and aliase/filter files, possible
spamassassin, possible Neomail, Horde, Squirrelmail, possible clamav.

Mostly it will be used for the 20-30 K DSL customers with one domain.

With maybe a couple hundred DSL cuistomer type websites but nothing too
dramatic or resource intensive.

In your (or anyone's ;p) opinion would this be a good system to allow
the description above to work efficiently?

2 Proc with good disk space for the project and 2GB ram?

TIA :)
