Re: [Imap-uw] mbox file size limitations?

2018-07-17 Thread Tim Mooney
hate 1-file/message format because large number of small messages received will overload underlying filesystem (i-nodes are limited resource) On many filesystems, that is true. Not all, though. Also, MIX is a nice compromise between mbox and maildir, since it can keep multiple messages per file

with something UW-ish, you should be looking at that. Even if you go to UW imap, you should expect to have to convert to some other format (likely MIX). If you want to stick with traditional mailbox formats and you need to support really large folders, you should investigate dovecot. Tim -- Tim
