Hello,
Finally managed to sync an outlook client to dovecot.
Looks like it's working.
Questions though ; :
What are the limits? Number of Folders ?
Number of mails per folder ?
E.g. for a client of mine, I know that she uses about
5Gb of data at the moment (and counting).
Now, this same outlook client consists of the following :
1. about thirty (30) folders ranging from 1000 messages per
folder to 100 messages per folder
2. A "Sent Items" folder with about 4,000 messages (and counting)
3. A "Deleted Items" folder with about 5,500 messages (and counting)
System, now, is a CentOS 5.5 32-bit on an hp/compaq dl360 (G3) with
RAID1 76,3Gb Disks UW320 and four (4Gb) of RAM
Output of "dovecot -n" :

Any answer would be greatly appreciated since I am trying to
know the systems' limits.
Thank you kindly all,
