Hello,

Most of my users are using mail clients with POP accounts. I have several users that have 150+MB mailboxes. It seems when these people check their mail they cause the server to have a high cpu usage and cause mail timeouts for others as well as make the whole server crawl.

Can I do anything about this? Is there some settings that I could increase to make it work better?

I am thinking about converting to dovecot to solve this issue, does anyone know if it will fix it?

Regards,
Phil
