Well, it's not "are". If I'm not mistaken, it was a patched UW server. I
think I looked at qmail-imap-0.2 also, but it's warning that most of the
IMAP protocol was unimplemented scared me away at the time.
I just noticed that www.qmail.org now lists an "improved" UW patch page,
and a different UW patched server. I'm pretty sure that neither of those
is what we used.
I was wondering at one point if there was a way to "hash" the messages in
the Maildir (somewhat like qmail's queue directory) to prevent having many
thousands of messages in a single directory. I assume that this isn't
part of the maildir spec, right?
