I updated http://wiki.dovecot.org/POP3Server. See maildir performance and session locking.
so according to this for POP3-only setups and v1.1 it is better to disable index files completely? Are there any drawbacks of disabling index files for POP3-only setups?
Thats not exactly what it says...
It says IF your users don't keep messages on the server (this has always been fairly unreliable with POP as far as my experience goes anyway) then you may want to disable them completely or use the mbox_min_index_size setting.
Maybe you should read it again... I know I often end up having to read these things many times before I can get my head around them - not becasue they are badly written, but because my head has a very strange shape and doesn't mold itself well to other shapes... ;).
