We working on several fronts to speed up the web interface. Right now the
web client creates the XML files when you log in (the XML files contain the
data displayed in the message list). We've moved the processing of the XML
into to the mailbox so the XML will stay up to date whenever the mailbox
changes and the web client only has to load it. This greatly reduces the
load the web client puts on IMAP. We've also sped up the IMAP purge (this
happens when the IMAP connection is closed) which also speeds the web client
response as well as lowering the amount of load on IMAP. These
architectural changes require a lot of testing, but we're trying to get it
all done as fast as possible.
As far as large mailboxes, I've been testing with a 1G mailbox (148K
messages) and on a test environment the message list is loading in 15 to 20
seconds. This it the time it takes the system to load, parse and sort the
XML file. Once it's loaded displaying messages and changing pages works
much faster.

Subject: [IMail Forum] 2006.03 Fix List?
There has been many concerns about Webmail performance in 2006.x. I've
heard about SMTP/QM performance improvements and the addition of some
functionality missing in 2006.x compared with 8.x, but I don't think I've
seen anything regarding whether webmail performance is being addressed
(particularly in terms of opening large mailboxes). Kevin, can you please
update us?
A rough ETA on 2006.03 would also be greatly appreciated, to aid in my
purchasing decision.
Thanks!
