Well, all I've seen is that the qmail system seems to be an integrated
package. We here are also looking into switching to maildirs, and
courier-imap seems very nice, especially with mysql authentication. Latest
upstream courier-imap also have a pop3 server with it, but sofar I have
not succeded in getting mysql support compiled in. If anyone has knowledge
of how to get this working on a debian system I would be very happy.
I've tried solid-pop3d in the unstable branch, but it seems to scale very
poorly, with about 10.000 user accounts it gets horribly slow.
