I still use procmail, a bit, but I don't have a strong opinion there. I always use mbox format. I find it very scalable, although I do roll over to new files every 200MB. Dovecot indexes so well that I'm pretty sure it is faster. Plus, it is likely much faster for backups etc. > It's all good. Thanks for the maildrop hint.
