Hi,

I have running dovecot with about 28k users.
Here comes my relevant config for pop3 and imap from "doveconf -n".
No problems so far.

-- snip --
default_client_limit = 2000
...

service imap-login {
  inet_listener imap {
    port = 143
  }
  process_limit = 256
  process_min_avail = 50
  service_count = 1
}
service imap {
  process_limit = 2048
  process_min_avail = 50
  service_count = 1
  vsz_limit = 512 M
}
...

service pop3-login {
  inet_listener pop3 {
    port = 110
  }
  process_limit = 256
  process_min_avail = 25
  service_count = 1
}
service pop3 {
  process_limit = 256
  process_min_avail = 25
  service_count = 1
}
...

protocol imap {
  imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep
  imap_id_log = *
  imap_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o session=<%{session}>
  mail_max_userip_connections = 40
  mail_plugins = " quota mail_log notify zlib imap_quota imap_zlib"
}

...
protocol pop3 {
  mail_plugins = " quota mail_log notify zlib"
pop3_logout_format = bytes_sent=%o top=%t/%p, retr=%r/%b, del=%d/%m, \ size=%s uidl_hash=%u session=<%{session}>
}
-- snip --

Regards
Urban
