So if others are using NetApp for Maildirs, I'd like to hear about your experiences, too.
We are.
One of the hackeries I did was from a patch someone else had done to Courier-IMAP for the POP server.
It likes to 'read the message 1 byte at a time' to verify the size.
I changed all occurences of that to instead just use stat() on the file and return the size.
This dropped the usage over NFS from 160Mbps to just over 20Mbps over the gig interface.
30K mailboxes, Postfix using Maildir storage, Courier-IMAP with the above 'fix', servicing POP and IMAP to our customers.
