We have a very similar situation. Same user mix.
We did the upgrade and moved to a different box at the same time
We moved to a dual intel pentium pro 2.8 box with 2 gig memory.
I have seen no difference in POP or IMAP performance. The Webmail side
however is slow.
I'm not an IIS jock, so maybe we havent tweeked it, but I dread having to use
it. I've taken
to using portableapps version of thunderbird and use IMAP rather than Web. Mac
users will whine!
I had no trouble moving from 8x to 2006. we did not do an upgrade, we did a
clean install
on the new box and migrated the domains. Went from w2000 server to w2003
server. There are
a couple of tech articles on how to move domains. Went very well well. Be sure
to enable listing on all ports.
Good luck
John

Subject: [IMail Forum] IMail - Upgrade or not?Hi Everyone -
Looking for advice on upgrading to the latest version of Imail. Here is our
story:
- Currently running Imail 8.2x (w/ hotfixes) with about 75 domains / 300
users
- Estimated that 80% of the users download their mail in lieu of accessing
via the website, although that might be because of old web interface
- Probably about 5% of users are using Macs, although the "fever" is
spreading
- Also running the latest version of Declude, Sniffer, and invURIbl.
At the present time, things are running ok (knocking, ok - hammering - on
wood). Our current SA that we purchased for this reason over a year ago
expires in the near future (not positive when though).
Upgrade or not?
Todd
