How do you handle 10 TB mailstore?
ZFS: no need to fsck.
GlusterFS: always-online.

Hi,
somebody from the kolab groupware project recently explained me that the Bus-
Factor[1] of around 1 would be one of their primary reasons not to use Dovecot
and stick with Cyrus.
What do you think about that? Is the bus factor much higher then 1?

Hi Sandro,
I've been asking myself whether I should include Debian in the list. You're
right that there are also other VCS' used in Debian. Zack's statistics say:

Minor changes, I tested that this actually works:

The -A parameter requires that you use a userdb that supports iteration.

Is the quota in the database 1096 or2GB? i.e. is the problem with
reading it, or updating it? In general the quota code uses 64bit
integers everywhere so this shouldn't be happening.
In the database quota field is 204800.

Hello, Stan,
in fact the only thing I miss even with my current scheme is permanent
ID assigned to the message so I can easily find it despite the IMAP
mailbox it is now (so if someone moved the message from one
mailbox/folder to another, the ID allows to retrieve it fast anyway).
