Probably had to do mostly with delivery.db locking. so far, with 4300+ users it is safe to use a flat database for the mailbox.db but I will encounter issues with the delivery. If I'm not wrong the delivery.db database is reported as duplicate_db in the imapd.conf and it is not possible to set it as flat. We don't use the suppression capability of the cyrus ( a bug of the outlook message id in the read_confirm&reply ) so It could be safe to put 2 separate database on the local FS. Is this correct?
