Can anybody estimate amount of work needed to make messages of a single

easy to realize or some fundamental work is needed? Can anybody give

I don't think that can be done. It seems to violate fundamental Cyrus principles.

I would like to make extendable (by size) user mailboxes, but I don't
want to move accounts over partitions when disk space becomes low,
instead I want to attach new storages and store new mail there.

Why? Moving mailboxes from one partition to another works well. I've written a Perl cron job that does it whenever one partition gets over 90% full.
