The Book of IMAP: Building a Mail Server with Courier and Cyrus, by Peer Heinlein and Peer Hartleben, is a quality resource for any serious mail administrator. The approach taken is direct, but at the same time it's very expansive, setting this book apart from most others I have read. It's packed full of rich examples which are used to solidify the topic being covered. At several places the authors reach out to explain when the subject is addressing ambiguous or otherwise undocumented information which is to great advantage to the reader and worthy of recognition.

I am not sure whether you know what you are talking about.
Here's is one for you to try on YOUR machine: zip up a few hundred thousand mini-KB files and report back to us how long it took you. Then delete a random 50000 files and ad 70000 new one into that zip-file; then report back and tell us how long that took. Then do your math and let us know what will happen if the server has to do that to any number of people typically accessing their mail at a time... the server would explode
