It's a heavily modified sqwebmail, whose CGI binary needs direct access
to the filesystem on which user directories (Maildirs are just a part of
what it uses) lie. Well, actually stock sqwebmail is said to work over
NFS, but:
- I want to avoid NFS as long as possible, having heard the horror
stories
- I'm not sure that our modifications are NFS-safe
given your webmail application may require shared storage
(squirrelmail does) but you can easily setup a cluster of apache's.
I don't understand this sentence. Could you rephrase it more clearly?
Long term you'll have to anyway.
Long term (which seems will be quite shortly) I will have to split the
mail storage to several machines, which is going to be even more tricky
