Like i said originally... we use qpopper, and it works fine for us. Your
mileage however, may vary. We are a small shop, and dont have many
customer accounts on this box. It serves our virtual domains well, and on
our busy server where our dialup account mail is stored, we use maildir
and qpop-3d.
There isnt enough traffic to max out the box, and i believe that even a
poorly coded pop3 server should be able to handle a light load =) I'm not
in a position to stress test the box, i have neither the time, nor the
customer base, nor the will or want to do it just for shits and grins...
But, as always, everyones needs are different. It filled a gap when we
first started, and aside from the security flaws that pop up somewhat
regularly, we've been quite happy.
Besides, the price was right =)
