I can only agree with this part -- I have a few users with insanely 
large folder trees on an mbox-based UW-IMAP system, and it definitely 
makes the server eat RAM at a horrendous rate... but that's to be 
expected...

I've been meaning to convert that box over to maildir to see if the 
performance goes up or down...
