We are running the City Hall of Campinas/SP/Brazil (middle-sized city, circa 1M people), using a two machine cluster, one with two cpus running postfix-tls 2.0.0.1, and another one with a single PIII-800 cpu, and Cyrus 2.1.11 (Debian). We have about 1000 users right now, and most of them prefer to connect to cyrus using pop3 (!), but the webmail system (Squirrelmail) likes to use imap. Usually we have 2-3 simultaneous imap users (99% of them are squirrelmail sessions), and about 1 pop3 download per second. The system handles about 33k new messages/week. We never had any real problems with the Cyrus setup: not a single one instance of trouble, actually. It is a *heavily* patched Cyrus IMAPd, though (the one in Debian) which is more stable in Linux machines than CMU's upstream version in Linux machines (IMHO, and AFAIK). You will have to test your setup against the outcrook clients your users will be using, and you will need to patch Cyrus 2.1.11 with at least the seen state flush stuff. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
