Hi, We've created a database based mail package called Dbmail (www.dbmail.org). Both pop server and imap server in this package are fully compatible with evolution. Although i must say that evolution has a few weirdnesses in handling a session with the imap server (for example the way evolution fetches headers). If these weirdnesses are gone evolution will be even more stable and a lot faster (well, for sure if you use imap).
It might be an idea to work together on integrating evolution with dbmail. We could add features for shared calenders; server based addressbooks.. stuff like that. How do you guys feel about this?
