So you can just add this to an existing configuration, without the need to do anything? Like eg reindex or so? I always had the impression this affects how messages are stored. mail_location = mdbox:xxxxxx:INDEX=xxxxxx:CONTROL=/xxxxxxx becomes: mail_location = mdbox:xxxxxx:INDEX=xxxxxx:CONTROL=/xxxxxxx:LAYOUT:index Does this really speed things up?
