This is the only thing that I would recommend you reconsider. Dovecot has been pretty much rock-solid for quite some time now (with a few minor issues here and there that would only potentially affect those who upgrade immediately following every release), and after the release of 1.2, it is making huge strides. It has a very good conversion utility for Courier-Dovecot that does preserve POP UIDLs: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier Of course, dovecot's strongest suit is as an IMAP server, but its POP capability should be fine too. The best part though - it is an order of magnitude (or more) faster than Courier... seriously. It can support far more clients on a single box than Courier can. I would strongly urge you to at least do some preliminary testing before making a final decision... Anyway, thats my .02 clad coins worth... -- Best regards, Charles
