I was thinking about documentation for alternate storage. We have a few mentions at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/dbox http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Altmove But I was thinking it would be helpful if there could be a page about alternate storage.

Unclear what TAGS are available/used for 'sdbox'.

I wonder if anyone has tried using an IMAP server with Amazon S3 as a backend. There would be many factors to consider (speed, etc).
