1.0 is targetted for release around Spring 2005, is that right?
Hopefully.
Will upgrading from 0.99.12 be easy or will all index need to be deleted and regenerated?
Configuration file has had a lot of changes, so you'll have to do that again. 1.0-tests use differently named index files so you'll just have to delete the old ones. Maybe I'll make that automatic as well.
I presume the POP server part doesn't use the indexes, as thats mostly for IMAP performance?
POP3 needs to know sizes of messages and those are stored in indexes. Otherwise it'd have to read though all the mails to find out the sizes and that's slow.
