I'd certainly look at tuning first. Where's the bottleneck? If that proves unsuccessful, you might try dovecot in place of courier-imap. I'm running dovecot (http://dovecot.org) with some high volume mailboxes on a couple toasters with good response times. Not quite that many users, but I doubt that would be an issue. -- -Eric 'shubes' --------------------------------------------------------------------- QmailToaster hosted by: VR Hosted <http://www.vr.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
