What impact on performance has the IMAP server? IOW, how long does it take to open such a maildir if you access it directly? It takes my computer a few seconds to open my biggest mailboxes (~16,000 messages each, 68 and 54 megs, resp.), and I've been thinking about going to Maildir because it lasts too long... Of course, I don't access my ~/Mail through an IMAP server... -- If you cc me or remove the list(s) completely I'll most likely ignore your message. see http://www.eyrie.org./~eagle/faqs/questions.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
