Hi.
You can try to keep the the users and their's passwords data in MySQL
database instead of cdb. vpopmail can support this, and I thin that in
your case (350000 users) it's the best option.
There is a README.mysql in your vpopmail source! vpopmail cretes the
SQL tables for myou and you can convert the existing cdb's inyo MySQL
tables!
