Re: pop3 and Maildir

[Eric Ravelomamantsoa <eravelo@dexem.com>]

I've been following this thread with interest because I'm also looking 
for a pop3 server for a Debian system . Anyway. There are some basic 
points I'm missing though. What are the pros and cons of Maildir versus 
other formats. What is the point with Mysql and pam authentication and 
how does it affect a mail server.  Can somebody, please give me some 
pointers where those are explained, and what are the best current 
practices for setting up a pop/imap mail server?

Thanks to all,

Eric.
