Hi,
Using Mac Mail with 9 mail accounts, more than 150 folders, and 1000s of mails, I get far too many problems lately, and not only on dovecot, so I would say the problem lies with Mac Mail, and even more if you installed Yosemite. As far as I know dovecot handle very well accounts with 100000s email even if the size is very big.
And BTW, looking for a fast and reliable mail client for Mac, to replace Mac Mail, any suggestion?
Regards, Thierry

Hi!
My Mail directory is 31G with about 180 directories, each containing mails in maildir format.
Has anyone had similar issues?
Is my maildir too big for dovecot too handle?
My Maildir is 61G in 237493 messages spread over 424 folders. dovecot handles this effortlessly. "doveadm mailbox status -t all '*' -u <name>" returns almost instanly on a warm cache. Thunderbird does fine too.
