Just a few features I currently wish for:
-Shared Quota (whole domain for ex.)
A domain with 10 accounts can have 10MB quota,
but that does not mean that each account should
have 1MB each. Separate quota table?
(MUST HAVE)
That's quite simple actually:
add a dbmail_clients table, which contains
create table dbmail_clients (
client_idnr bigint(21) not null,
client_maxmail bigint(21) not null,
client_curmail bigint(21) not null
);
add some calls in db.c to update the client_curmail field
update dbmail_clients set client_curmail = (
select sum(curmail_size) from dbmail_users where client_idnr=(
select client_idnr from dbmail_users where user_idnr=1)
) where client_idnr=(
select client_idnr from dbmail_users where user_idnr=1);
and use that field to check before delivery.
-Option to select imap sorting offload
-Let the database do the sort
-Let the dbmail-imapd do the sort
-Let the client do the sort
This can be used to offload some stress from the
database onto separate imap worker servers instead.
(Essential to good imap scaling)
Getting the database to do fast sorts by using the header tables is the first
step. Imo, good scalability is probably better served by proper a db-clustering
solution rather than by offloading to dbmail-imapd or imap-clients. We'll have
to cross that bridge when we get there.
-Serverside filters
The user specifies simple filters based on subject, header
or to/from values and what imap/webmail folder they are to
be delivered to. This would faciliate webmail filtering,
and also be a whole lot more effective than doing it in the
webmail code itself.
(Attractive feature)
Good question. I wonder whether Aaron will ever get around to finishing libsieve
and dbmail's usage of it.
On the other hand, once we have good sort/search support, client-side filtering
will be faster by several orders of magnitude.
