8000 messages in one folder's nothing. I regularly have 20,000-30,000
messages, both on a heavy peice of machinary at work and on a crappy
IDE-based PC at home. Works great. Seaches againsg 20,000 messages are
<1 second for indexed fields, but do suffer for full body searches (a bit
over a minute).
MTA mileage my vary, of course :-).
