Scott,

since you're going to be setting up an email server on redhat, I'd 
suggest that you stay away from the 'monolithic blob' they call 
sendmail. I know i'll get burned for this statement, but I think you'd 
be better off going with exim or qmail.

I've used an x486 machine as a mail server before with no problems. A 
pentium class machine would do you well.
