[Dovecot] pop3-throttle

2012-06-22 Thread Emmanuel Dreyfus
Hello I am having a hard time with users using POP while leaving mailboxes of several gigabyte cumulated. This causes a lot of disk I/O and kills performancs for everyone. I try to encourage people migrating to IMAP, but that migration will take some time, and therefore I am looking for alteranti
