I am interested in setting up mailbox servers on UNIX workstations/servers. I have looked at IMAP2 and it seems quite capable. However, after reading the docs on IMAP2 I learned that every mailbox must be connected to a defined user on one of the mailbox servers. I regard this as a security threat. It seems that IMAP2 was built to work on small sites consisting mainly of workstations and not on larger sites with servers, workstations and lots of small computers. Is there anyone out there who has experience of mailbox servers in large sites (I am talking ten or more subnets and tenthousand mailboxes). Thanks in advance Martin.Wendel@UDAC.UU.SE
