    Hi guys,

    I've been following this mailing list since SUSE 8.0 came out, and have kept
    every single mail. I know that might sound excessive, but having my own copy
    of at least a piece of "the archives" has helped more than a couple of times
    when connectivity isn't available.

    Currently I have all my mail stashed in ~/Maildir - courier-imap gives me
    access to it. Nice setup as I can chop&change between mail clients any time
    I like.

    However, the sheer volume of mail is becoming a problem. It's getting slower
    and slower, searches through mail folders take for ever and max out my CPU
    for minutes at a time.

    I was wondering if there's a better way to store my mail?

    Thanks
