I'm relatively knowledgeable about IMAP, but a newbie to UW IMAP toolkit, so apologies in advance if this is a particularl obvious or particularly dumb question...
I'm building an application that requires a large number of accounts (thousands to tens of thousands), each account containing an INBOX with a relatively small number of messages at any point in time (~6-10 messages per mailbox on average). I really don't want to create a UNIX user for each user in my application; that doesn't seem scalable to me. Does the toolkit support any alternative model whereby I can create accounts on the IMAP server with user/password authentication, without the overhead of creating/managing a UNIX user account for each? _______________________________________________ Imap-uw mailing list Imap-uw@u.washington.edu https://mailman1.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/imap-uw
