OK, gloves off ;-P

# /usr/bin/time --portability nice ionice -c3 find -O3 
/var/mail/mailsec/shared-r[ow] -type f -name 1\* -printf x | wc -c
real 73.32
user 2.98
sys 10.03
2068625

That's an email corpus from Jan 2009 to present,
stored in /<year>/<week-of-year> folders,
accessed via prayer via dovecot 1.2.9.

We used tbird in the past, but had problems tricking bolting on some
unusual workflows.  Also at the time dovecot exported ~/Mail over IMAP,
and tbird read IMAP and saved copies back into THE SAME ~/Mail over
NFS... with hilarious consequences.
