Simple tip:
verify Server Side Sorting is enabled (Courier supports it unless
specifically disabled which would be bad in your case).  The setting in
config.php is:
  $allow_server_sort = true;

More involved tip:
move your Maildirs to a filesystem that does better with directories
containing thousands of files such as ReiserFS or a updated ext3 (like
Fedora Core 3)
