I don't know exactly, but I know what solved my problems was to setup imap server between the directory structure and the client. The server where the mails are is 4cores/32GB mem, however the server is not very fast - I am not sure why - I suspect the disks are not the fastest, but I do not experience any issue with mails. Few years ago I integrated dbmail for a customer. It is extremely fast. Think about migrating those tons of mails. I know it is not exactly an answer, but I can not think of any other. As for kmail I have not looked into it in detail, but it is complex - one has to be able to reproduce the problem to help you find a solution. Also are you sure nothing else is using your local Maildir? I know you have many scripts for this and that. regards --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
