Hello, Actually, thousands of customers would send order emails to a system running postifx. All orders end up in ord...@example.com. Then, another app fetches these emails via Dovecot (POP or IMAP), ideally at the rate of 1000 per second. I think it might be difficult to accomplish this via POP since I think Dovecot would have to lock the account while doing the POP downloads. This makes it difficult to have more than one app downloading at a time. Cheers, Bob
