I have a question about the pop3 server; I have been using Courier
for awhile and I have several users who unfortunately like to leave
their mail on the server for 7 days.

The problem I have is that it appears that the pop3 server is reading
the contents of every email... when you have 3 users simultaneously
reading 100 megabytes of mail every 5 minutes, it leads to significant
degradation of performance on the server.

My key reason for making the switch to Maildirs was to avoid this kind
of thrashing.  Has anyone else run into this?  Is there a setting in
pop3d that I can use to have it only read the headers, or does pop3
have to read the complete contents?

Thanks,
Mark
