This was a brand new machine, very clean defragged
SCSI RAID 1 drives.

I still have the old NT4, Imail 5.08 server laying around.
When I copy the domain in question back to that server,
there are no delays, and when I try to open a folder with
lots of email, the CPU hits 100% to process it, and and I 
get the first page of results back in a couple of seconds.

I could see the delays, if the CPU was loaded, but during 
the delays, the CPU is at 1-2% for 30 seconds, and then
it bursts the results out.

When I used to use the web interface when travelling, my read was that the 
horrendous delays were the constant scanning the .mbx file with 100's of 
messages in it on a non-dedicated mailbox partition that that was not 
defragged.

I finally gave up trying to use it since every time I tried read or delete 
messages, it refused, saying the .mbx/index file had changed due to another 
message arriving after the current screen had been displayed.
