i'm using pop3. i clean out my inbox regularly so it currently only has 56 messages in it. i probably get 200-300 messages a day (including spam). i am on a cable modem and typically have very good speeds. i have a backup folder that is set up through procmail (which delivers all my local mail to /var/spool/mail/user). here's a sample of contents of one of the folders (this is Inbox): -rwxrwxrwx 1 jlwallen jlwallen 103 Mar 9 20:22 folder-metadata.xml -rw------- 1 jlwallen jlwallen 95 Jul 26 14:35 local-metadata.xml -rw------- 1 jlwallen jlwallen 1027818 Jul 26 15:22 mbox -rw------- 1 jlwallen jlwallen 13737 Jul 26 15:22 mbox.ev-summary -rw------- 1 jlwallen jlwallen 92160 Jul 26 15:18 mbox.ibex.index -rw------- 1 jlwallen jlwallen 75792 Jul 26 15:18 mbox.ibex.index.data does that help any?
