We manage ~100K mailboxes which will be migrated on new servers. The
mailbox format is mbx (expetced to change to mix after the migration)
and the Operating System will be Linux amd64. So, on what filesystem
would one place them?  Currently we are thinking of putting them on
XFS.

PS: We do not deliver "flat" under /var/mail; we use a two level
hashing scheme based on the user ID.
