How do you deliver then mails to the server?
also mbox is very unoptimised mailbox format for this. Each time mail is deleted from mbox mailbox the whole mbox while needs to be rewritten to remove the mail.
OpenSMTPD and Dovecot run on the same machine. OpenSMTPD receives incoming mails and stores them in a mailbox (/var/spool/mail/user). Dovecot then fetches mails from this mailbox file.
Mailbox file is indeed very unoptimal, but at this moment I'm more curious about the reason why I can't expunge mails... perhaps it'd simpler with maildir, where it just means a simple file deletion.
