Hi Peer,
We have switched our mailbox storage format from maildir to mdbox!
Maildir is a disaster. (too many small files) After the migration to mdbox the performance has improved significantly.
Conclusion: mdbox is great and much better performance than maildir! I would also recommend ext4.
Best regards,
