Re: Large POP box question

[David Muszynski]

I don't know about server performance (although I'd guess that it bogs 
down pretty good) but I know that on the user end of the connection 
that it has to parse the entire file to see what new mail has been 
appended, and that's a pretty slow process even on broadband.

If some of my users keep a large POP mailbox on my SIMS system, say 
10-15MB of undownloaded attachments for messages they have already 
seen, does that bog down the server and/or slow down their performance 
each time they connect to check their mail?
