I set up dbmail with mysql (innodb) on a small machine (pII 366, 128 MB RAM). Then I created 1 user and send a mail of 6MB, when trying to retrieve the mail with pop3 it is much slower then imap (+/- 10 min instead of +/- 30 sec).
I don't think indexing the db would help, and I can't think anything else then that the pop3d is slower then imapd. Oh BTW the pop3d uses a lot of CPU (above 96%) and imapd a lot less (few %) I appreciate you asked xming -----Original Message----- From: Eelco van Beek - IC&S [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 10:57 AM To: dbmail@dbmail.org Subject: Re: [Dbmail] Imapd is slow as hell What is wrong with the speed of pop3? We're running dbmail for 22.000 users all using pop3. No problems at all...
