What sort of machine was it running on, and what type of mail load. I know you are aware that that was a 1.2GB text file that under almost all operations in Imail gets rebuilt by the worst possible process of copying the file to a new file and leaving out or adding the changes (i.e. you need at the very least 1.2GB of free sapce to manage your email). A 100MB mailbox is very cumbersome to work with on a busy server. I won't even get into the fragmentation and unneccissary file I/O issues involved with a mailbox that big.
