When using SquirrelMail, make sure these settings are 'true':
Allow server thread sort : true Allow server-side sorting : true
Otherwise performance will suffer because it will do these things itself rather than letting the server do them.
Is this still true if both SM and Dovecot are on the same box? I.e. is this a CPU bandwidth issue or a network bandwidth issue? If these settings solve a network b/w issue then they're irrelevant when both SM and Dovecot are on the same host.
It's more along the lines of SM will not use commands like SORT and attempt to do things itself because your server does not implement it. For example, I believe SurgeMail does not implement IMAP SORT so you'd have to set it to 'false'. Dovecot does, and is much better at executing SORT than having squirrel simulate it.
