I've delivered email directly into AFS and it seems to work for a small 
number of users.  I understand that problems arise from hosting many 
mailboxes and the number of callbacks to clients when files / 
directories get updated with new mail.

Do you intend to have an SMTP server write directly to AFS?  Or end-user 
run clients write downloaded email into AFS?
