As far as tens of thousands of messages per folder, the server itself

a folder, that's that. There are filesystem that should easily handle
hundreds of thousands of messages.

Hello Sam,

What modern filesystem for Maildir storage could you recommend me?

I don't routinely have folders with tens of thousands of messages. Except for my Trash folder, which usually has 5,000+ messages waiting to be expunged. ext3 appears to handle it just fine, but I have not done any benchmarks.
