If I were you, I'd buy a bigger disk.  Say it costs $500 to get your
software adjusted which would be pretty cheap.  For that price, you
could easily get 120GB of mirrored disk in a hot swap enclosure,
probably 200GB if you chose your parts carefully..  Unless people are
mailing around videos on your lists, that's an awful lot of mail
messages.
