Really? On my biggest server, I'm running apache, mysql, bind, dbmail (POP+IMAP), postfix and a few other misc programs for over 75 domains on a 1.2ghz machine with only 1 gig of RAM, and it works fine, bareley struggles at all. Granted it's not a huge installation, but how much mail were you managing on that P3? Just curious. Seemed a little odd, but you didn't mention specifics, maybe you're dealing with several million accounts or something else that's slowing things down. I agree that IMAP is a little laggy. It's definitely the weak point in the system at this point, but it should get a lot better pretty soon. I haven't had too much trouble with it though. -Micah
