Interesting! What zlib compression level did you use? I figure even low levels would work rather well for plain text.

plugin {
	zlib_save_level = 6 # 1..9
	zlib_save = gz # or bz2

Now that I think about "plain text": I also have the fts_solr plugin enabled to speed up the occasional full-text search - does the indexing still work as before when the mail is compressed, i.e. is the reading of the mail centralized so that the individual plugins don't actually know or care? Or would I need to make sure I use 'zlib-aware' plugins?

I don't have fts (yet).
