sorry but this is bullshit and can only come from @apple.com workers
which is the comapny who sold over years much to expensive X-Serve
with f**ng "Hitatchi Deskstar" disks and it seems you have never seen
a real computer with server-hardware nor had to pay one

as we migrated to dbmail our mail-volume was the double size as
now two years later because there was one customer exceeding
all limits and on the old machines where no quotas and we
decided to get rid of him because this and other reasons

and better do not start a braindead discussion why there was no
quotas because the old machine was a apple x-serve with a f**ing
eudora mail server and was migrated by me to a real server and
it was not my decision use your companies crap much too long

fact is that because using files_per_table i could reduce the datasize
to the half and on the slave is running a weekly backup and one
"last-week" accessable via imap for imapsync

so we have only here FOR copies of the data
additionally a daily offsite-backup is running
oh and not to forget: VMware-Data-Recovery

and last but not list two external 4 TB disks (full encrypted), one inhou=
se
and one outside to cover cases where the SAN storage or whatever is damag=
ed

damned we are speaking about DEFAULTS making life hard or not so hard

and apple is one of the companies which are resposible that more and
more braindead zombies are runnin out there by telling the world that
nobody should have to read any documentation - and now your arguments
are "it is a dead end" -> well, it's your companies philosophy
