Where do you locate your daemons?

On my current project, we're developing an application that has two components. One is a webapp that lives in Tomcat and the other is a standalone jar that runs as a daemon. The daemon checks an e-mail Inbox every few minutes and if there's new mail, it processes the Excel attachments and enters this information in a database. My question is: where on the filesystem should we put this daemon? We're running on Red Hat 8 - maybe /usr/local/mail-daemon or something? BTW, we were running on BSD, but it's Java wasn't up to snuff (didn't support 1.4) - so we're running Linux instead. I dig the Linux/Java combo - it just works!

I usually put daemon programs in /usr/local as you have suggested. Sincerely, Anthony Eden
