[Dovecot] rule of thumb for indexing overhead

2007-08-22 Thread WJCarpenter
I realize it's hard to be precise about this, but does anyone have a feel or rule of thumb for a couple of aspects of indexing overhead? 1. Proportionally, how much space does it take for all 4 files? If I want to give my users a quota of 100 MB for messages, how much real space should I plan fo
