 And FWIW, that RFC is classified as Experimental.  Hasn't been a bunch  
 of momentum behind it, at least in terms of adoption/implementations.   
 Mailbox metadata seems to be the more interesting development at this  
 time (RFC 5464).

Yes, I know, but for groupware collaboration on mails, it is an useful
feature. Especially in companies, where an extreme group based workflow
is used.




[Dovecot] Shared mailboxes / IMAP folder performance

2014-01-21 Thread Sebastian Schlatow
Hello,

how performant is an IMAP shared folder / mailbox if it contains 2
million mails? Is it possible two have such a quantity of mails in a
shared folder? Is it possible to search that shared folder for mails in
a fast way?

Regards
Sebastian

 there might no ultimate answer for this ,cause it might not depend on
 the number of mails only, there might be other complex setup stuff
 involved, at the end with which client you like to search, why not
 simply test it with a test server, shouldnt take much time

Thanks for your quick reply. As a client Thunderbird, Evolution and
Outlook should be used. In rare cases maybe mobile clients on iOS and
Android. So it is principle possible to have it performant? I asked
because I wanted to know if it makes sense to setup a test system for that.
