Marc, we did the conversion recently on our DirectAdmin boxes, and I had
some hair-raising moments during the conversion when we saw some
incredibly huge mailboxes with large amounts of files rsulting from the
conversion, but all went well. I don't know enough about the numbers,
but I don't think we're going to hit the limits.

I would have considered ReiserFS if not for Hans's personal problems,
and Suse's consequent (?) decision to drop support for it in future
releases. But I now worry about future development of ReiserFS, and I
don't want to use it on anything new.
