Re: Cyrus vs. UW IMAP + procmail question
Hi,
Many thanks for everyone for the suggestions!
A somewhat related question:
So far I was sticking to the mbox format, although many people claim
the maildir to be better, because I'm not sure if my filesystem has
enough inodes to store archives of some high volume mailing lists
I'm subscribed to, when saving every single message to a separate file...
Any experience with this?
Many thanks again!
best regards,
Balazs
