    BW> What are the current limits in Mystic for the number of message groups,   
    BW> number of message areas, number of messages in a (JAM) message base   
    BW> (either local or networked), number of file groups, number of file areas   
    BW> and the maximum size of a file in bytes?   
      
   About 65000 general groups, 65000 file groups, 2 billion message areas, and 2   
   billion file areas would be where it starts to max out.   
      
   JAM bases are limited by the filesize of the datafiles which is 4 gigabytes on   
   data per base.  I think when I calculated that out at some point it was about   
   a maximum of 1 million messages per base.  But in reality it should be less   
   given the amount of data stored will be a factor in how many messages you can   
   have.   
      
   I have a JAM64 extension which removes that limintation but it would break   
   compatibility with third party utilities so I've never bothered.  In 26 years   
   only one person ever hit the limit and that was someone who was trying to   
   mirror data-based UseNet newsgroups in JAM for some reason.
