Hi guys,
I was wondering... my Inbox is 1.3GB large, my mailbox size limit is 6GB (6442450941). Other users have 500+ MB in their Inbox.
I have about 27GB of mail. I'm running dovecot 1.0.7 now under Fedora 7 with postfix. I have no trouble at all, everything is working perfect.
I use ext3 as my file system, and I store mail in maildir format.
Will I have any inode, file system, issues? Is anyone storing more then 27GB in maildir format on only one ext3 partition?
Here is my dovecot -n output:
