On a courier IMAP server with squirrelmail, I found the biggest performance boost to be turning on server side sorting.

This combined with an imap proxy and a php accelerator allow me to handle multiple users with 2+ gigs of mail each on a 1ghz PIII. -Jon On Mon, 06 Dec 2004 19:00:09 +0100, Alexander Dalloz <ad+lists@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Am Mo, den 06.12.2004 schrieb Ow Mun Heng um 7:34: > > > On Mon, 2004-12-06 at 00:56, Alexander Dalloz wrote: > > > Am So, den 05.12.2004 schrieb Chris Mason um 15:13: > > > What I highly recommend is to use an IMAP proxy between the > > > Cyrus-IMAPd and SquirrelMail.
