Hi,

I am no expert on qmail-ldap or dovecot, but if I understand the systems correctly qmail-ldap's native clustering functionality is more functional than using docecot which is a designed to create clustering functionality where none existed before. We presently have our cluster configured to have a single qmail-ldap server on the edge that acts as our anti-spam filter(qscand+spamassassin+clamav) and proxy to rest of our cluster. The imap connections, pop connections and smtp(qsmtp) all work as expected, we only have a few hundred email boxes but most are in the 3000+ messages and 2gigs+ mailbox size.

Hello, i have seen some good reviews about dovecot and trying to migrate some sites that currently use courier-imap, so far the problem that I have found is with quotas, on dovecot are in kbytes and qmail-ldap use them in bytes besides that seems that everything to work well, but i would like to know if some one has experience with dovecot and qmail-ldap and if is a good option for a site with more than 1000 users using an average mailbox size of 50Mb with no more than 5 folders.

regards.
