Correct sizing of CPU and RAM
How to correctly calculate the number of CPUs and memory required for 1000 client mailboxes and beyond? Given that 30-50% of users will be constantly connected via IMAP. I looked for information and did not find any sizing in the documentation anywhere. Is there a way to calculate my required resources?

There are so many variables, that is almost impossible to calculate, eg are you using Anti-Spam technology? And what kind? Rate Limiters? et al...
However, anything you can buy off the shelf nowadays will be overkill for 1000 users.. just make sure you have good RAID ;)
