We first added hivemail as the non-integrated version, so members had to manually sign up. Now that its integrated, when new users sign up, their email acct is automatically created. The amount of new email users is really starting to climb.They can sign up at registration, or later, its up to them. It's really quite nice.
As far as server loads go, I haven't seen any spikes, it's running pretty low.
I'm on a dedicated box, and so far so good. There is no real way of judging how many users are sending/receiving at the same time, but we haven't noticed any problems to this point.
This is where we are at now, with 75 online:
Load Averages: 0.45 : 0.31 : 0.30
