The talk was "The Design and Implementation of a Large Scalable Mail Server". It's about the mail cluster I set up here for Oxford University and it sounds similar to what the original request was for. We have about 30000 users. I successfully argued against MS Exchange and designed and built a completely Open Source solution based on a Linux cluster with 250GB of disk, UW imapd/ipopd, Exim (MTA) and an Apache/mod_perl-based web to mail gateway that I wrote called WING. The two Solaris nodes in the cluster were there for political reasons and are being replaced by Linux boxes within the next few weeks. There is a WING web page and mailing list which includes a link to the PostScript slides of the talk. The slides will also be shortly be available from UKUUG.
