I'm testing a new revision to IMail's odbcuser.dll (Mike Nice's version),
which incorporates a cache buffer and event logging. It can also merge all
mail domains into a single database table. I noticed that just signing on
IMail's web interface requires about 10 repetitive SQL queries. I couldn't
believe it. This appears to be a definite vast improvement not only in web
server response, but also in reducing the load on the database server.
Reports show over a 97% hit rate on IMail's webmsg & POP3 services. In
addition, it can keep the mail server up and running during SQL outages
since there's a cache to fall back to. Our IMail server started slowing
down at about 6000 database mailboxes on a dual 500mhz, compaq with 512megs
of ram due to ODBC issues. This appears to greatly increase that
limitation.
Anyone willing to spend $99 for such a dll for IMail? Of course, I'm
willing to sell it off to IPSwitch for IMail v7 too.

Actually the user@domain login is only for domains that are sans IP
addresses. If you can set up a virtual domain with an IP address your users
will connect to this particular IP and just log on as their userid.
