  I just installed beta 8 and everything appears to be running smoothly.  Of 
  course, my mail server is pretty basic.

I also installed 1.1b8 yesterday and everything has been fine so far.
Haven't found anything yet to request a patch for :)

I even took a leap and migrated my 6 gigs of personal email to 
my server running 1.1b8 and am using it as my exclusive working mail set.
My next task is to convince a few more heavy users here to do the same
(I'm sure I won't need to twist their arm very hard).

My email use today has been bliss, while hearing about co-workers complain
about the old slow production server!  hahahahaha.
