...flineimap with :INDEX=/tmp/dovecot-%u, but
what I'd really like to know is has anyone got a functional dovecot
installation with AFS and GSSAPI sasl support that gets the correct

Any plans for storing messages on a database?
Redudancy and recovering from a mailstore failure is one of the concerns I
am trying to address where I work.
Any plans to have Dovecot store emails in a database?
NAS/SAN devices which do automatic replication to a second device are
extremely expensive.
I also don't see any distributed filesystem which is mature and available
for the OS we use (FreeBSD).

So, what about clustering and load balancing?
Hello world,
so, with beta2 of Dovecot 2.0 being available, what is the preferred
way to achieve load balancing and fault tolerance? As far as I can see
it, there are basically two options:
1) Use a HA shared storage, export either a cluster filesystem or NFS,
and have your dovecot servers mount that file system. Load balance
these servers (Cisco ACE, ldirectord, ...) and there you go. Overall

dbmail benchmarking
I thought I'd try benchmarking with dbmail (v2.2.4) to see how much
slower a SQL backend could actually be. Skip to bottom for the
conclusions.
Originally I ran the tests with the databases being in XFS

with ext3.
MySQL 5.0.30 backend (innodb):

Replication plans
Several companies have been interested in getting replication support
for Dovecot. It looks like I could begin implementing it in a few months
after some other changes. So here's how I'm planning on doing it:
What needs to be replicated:
- Saving new mails (IMAP, deliver)
- Copying existing mails
- Expunges
- Flag and keyword changes
- Mailbox creations, deletions and renames
-
