[ale] reiserfs question

I've set up a server to be a mail server.  For the first time, and I'm 
using "maildir" to store mail, and resierfs for improved reliability.  

I'm anything but an expert on file-systems, but it seems to me that you 
used to have ((on *some* types filesystems) to "worry" about having 
enough inodes on a given file system, with each file taking up at least 
one inode.  Since my mail is going to take up a lot more files than it 
used to, (I get hundreds of mail messages a day, and "archive" an awful 
lot of them), I wanted to ask if resiserfs has any type of limit on the 
number of files it can handle.

Thanks
David
