We have three mail servers running with about 500 users.
For a while we were using SAM (with no know problems) but
now we are using Disinfectant 2.4.

About backups, I have tried using NetStream to provide
unattended backups with little or no luck.  I end up
performing an command-d on the data file about every "once
in a while".  Even with the server running, the copy works
fine and the new data file is good (I tried it).

My cohort never backs up the data file but keeps the user
list to recover from a crash.
