the 8192 is the size of the cache for the IDs - if you're processing a large
mailbox though, (say, more than 10-20 messages) you'd defenitly want this
larger...  at least 64k, if not more...

another way to go at it, and this also works only if there's only one machine
that is getting the mail, is just put the mailfolder (or the maildir) in an
nfs share...
