Hi,

Quoting Diego Ventrice <fordcar...@googlemail.com>:

Danke Marc, clearer now.
And sure, I'll take answers from anyone.

About this:

What do you think files named "header", "index", "cache", "expunge" and
"squat" in this context contain? ;)

Ich denke  this are the cyrus header index and cache files generally
stored on each mailbox folder.
I can imagine what they do but not sure and I wouldnt mind about a
little explanation =)


most of the time cyrus does not need to access the message file (####.)
but uses the cyrus.* files. These files are small compared to the sum
of the message files.

By defining a metapartition you can use fast but expensiv storage like SSDs
for the metadata and other storage for the mails.


About expunge and squat, keine Idee about what they are for and where
they reside
expunge: index file with messages marked for deletion ?

Thanks again
D.
