Database/Folder Size Limits
Posted: Fri Mar 24, 2006 4:34 am
Hi,
We are looking at moving Scalix. Currently we use Qmail/SquirrelMail with Outlook/Outlook express clients. Some questions to assist in our evaluation:
1. Does Scalix mail database have a limit? Our current mail database is 70gb with some very large mailboxes.
2. Most of this information is in public folders. There are 4 main public folders divided into over 10,000 sub folders. Again, are there in any limitations in Scalix to prevent this structure.
3. Due to the size and number of folders and messages, we cannot use SquirrelMail in a effective way as a web mail client. It just takes way too long. How does Scalix Web Client cope with a vast amount of folders and messages - it is optimized for fast performance despite the mail box size (in this case public folders).
Thanks for your responses.
