[Dovecot] DoveCot compression to save HDD space

[Oliver Schulze L.]

Compression will save you storage space, but will cost you CPU 
processing power.
If you have many users, you may want to trow a cheap raid1 in your server
before upgrading your CPU to expensive a quad-core

But is a nice idea for a small workgroup server
