With Courier, I have the ability to spread access to the mail spool directory across several incoming smtp servers, is Cyrus able to do something similar? What I am referring too, is having multiple incoming email servers, with their mail spools being NFS mounts to a single box using Maildir format, access to which is served by courier Imap. This configuration belongs to a local ISP and I am looking at porting it to my corporate network, but I want to look at other options than Courier.
Thanks
Is NFS a requirement? If you need to split the SMTP part, you can run
multiple instances of any SMTP server (e.g. sendmail), all of them
delivering mail via LMTP to a single server running Cyrus. Cleaner, much more efficent and scalable, IMHO.
