Very quick question, when installing debian for this (http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier) guide, is the installation exactly how you described in the perfect debian setup (http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge), or are there any diffrences?

Also what would you recomend for partions.
I was thinking
1 gig swap (256 meg of ram)
10 gig /var/spool
20 gig /
49 gig /home

All raid 1, two hard drives.

All mail boxes will be in /home, so there's no need to have an extra partition for /var/spool.

Thanks,

and the 49 gig /home is for the mail boxes, I was under the idea that its a good idea to have a seprate partiton for the spool, was I wrong?

The setup uses Maildir so all mail boxes are stored in /home, not in /var/spool/mail.
