Hi list, Has anyone had any experience with building scalable webmail applications?
I've got a pretty good infrastructure in place to support the email store and attachments. The interface is clean and usable. All email accounts in the system are either POP'd from the local server or a remote server. One issue in particular I'm facing is retrieving the POP mail efficiently for each account. At present, it puts in a CF scheduled task, but this is a bad kludge and inefficient. One solution I was looking at is to use "fetchmail" (a unix application) to run continuously, checking email accounts and then handing them off to a script to be inserted into the DB. Anyone have suggestions, experiences they would like to share? Off-list if you prefer.
