Our imap/pop service is moving from UW imap to dovecot 0.99.11 on RHEL4.
This is for around 200 users with lots of different email clients, e.g.:
Windows: outlook, outlook Express, eudora, thunderbird, netscape
OS X: mail, eudora, thunderbird
Unix/Linux: evolution, thunderbird, pine, mutt
Web: squirrelmail
Apart from the example configuration file, I can't find any guides
for optimal values to use for dovecot's many configuration options.
A few that look like they might need changing are:
login_process_size = 32
login_process_per_connection = yes
login_processes_count = 3
mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 30
auth_count = 1
client_workarounds =
Does anyone have any pointers to reasonable values for those or other
settings?
Thanks
