Personally, I'd put it in sysctls per covics post. |

Can you imagine three years hence trying to find why max_user_instances |
| 15 |
is set non-default and *nothing* in the usual places gives a clue why? |

When you eventually resort to "grep -r max_user_instances /etc" and |
| 18 |
realise that a kernel setting is being changed in your imap server |
| 19 |
config, you will curse and swear to the heavens (been there, done that) |

Of course, it's up to you. I just like to make config settings in places |
| 22 |
that are the most obvious to everyone who is not me |
