Ran into some issues updating to courier-imap-4.0.6-r3 on my VPS so I |
2 |
decided to take the plunge and go straight to 4.5.0 which is unstable. |
3 |
4.5.0 is much faster and Thunderbird barely registers email in the Inbox |
4 |
before the messages are moved to the appropriate folder. My installation |
5 |
is also a combination of cyrus-sasl, authdaemon from courier-authlib, |
6 |
Mysql based virtual accounts, ssl certs for imap and smtp, and Postfix. |
7 |
No changes were needed in courier-imap config files other than restoring |
8 |
imap.conf settings. |
9 |
I don't think Courier-imap is faster than Dovecot based on other |
10 |
people's experience, but has rather reached speed parity with it. If |
11 |
you're already on Dovecot and happy, stay, if you've been thinking about |
12 |
Dovecot but have a complex system to move I'd recommend trying the |
13 |
upgrade to 4.5.0. |
14 |
I also update gamin and use +fam with courier-imap which might affect |
15 |
the overall speed. The update from 0.1.9 to 0.1.10 doesn't look like it |
16 |
would account for the increased speed. |
