But I'm using an old copy of Mulberry, which was designed for IMAP. The problem area is clients designed for POP and adapted to IMAP. I'd say this relevant to Cyrus, because if we have a great server side but weak user-facing software, we lose the game. I wish we'd somehow financed a native Cyrus webmail interface, that is not using IMAP but built into Cyrus. I don't think users know how good Cyrus is because they look at it through a weak intermediary. > (Admission: we haven't yet tried imapproxy > -- it appears to be a good piece of C which will help things.) Do it. It makes a huge difference. You go from crawling to just slow.
