[Dovecot] Mixing POP and IMAP
Hi,
I run a small site, about a dozen users, and many of the users POP their mail.
I have just installed Squirrelmail which uses IMAP. Has anyone had any
significant problems with mixing POP and IMAP for mail retreival?
Your feedback is greatly apprecianted,

Same here. We have about 600 users in our server. Mainly using Pop3 and we are slowly starting to convert people to Imap (maybe got 70 on Imap so far.) Haven't had any problems yet anyways. -Jesse

Has anyone had any significant problems with mixing POP and IMAP for mail retreival?Your feedback is greatly apprecianted, Hi, you can savely run imap and pop3, but setup howtos for imap cause in squirrel the used to have a sent folder, trash etc which might fill up their mailbox quota ( if you have such), but users cant see this folder if they usual use pop3 with their normal mail clients, so its more a problem to educate user what are difference between pop3 and imap, for sure all users should use pop3s and imaps for security reasons If you have more users which use imap ( starting from 100 up to ......) be sure that your mailserver has enough power ( cpu, memory ) to handle

Get users to pick one and they will be happier.
