OpenSMTPD receives incoming mails and stores them in a mailbox (/var/spool/mail/user). Dovecot then fetches mails from this mailbox file. Mailbox file is indeed very unoptimal, but at this moment I'm more curious about the reason why I can't expunge mails... perhaps it'd simpler with maildir, where it just means a simple file deletion. -- Selmeci Tamás http://www.486.hu/
