I plan on building a Murder with over 150k accounts. 4 frontends and 4 backends My question is what would be best auth mechs for accounts and cyrus processes? I have had a working test with GSSAPI, PLAIN for users. This worked for everything except the imap proxyd. I would get a error about packet sizes too big. I switched to DIGEST-MD5 and this problem stopped. Any info you can give me would be great.
