openwebmail and speed

Hello, all,

We're using openwebmail in work, and we're experiencing some speed
issues when it comes to mailboxes which are quite full.

Is there any way to speed this up?

For instance, the dbmopen() call presumably has to create the
databases in the first instance to get a fresh look at a mailbox. Can
this be moved to an external script, called when new mail is added to
the box?

That's about all I can think of.

Anyone worked with this? Anyone just moved to another web mail? From
the info I've looked at people (and ow themselves) seem to think that
openwebmail isn't slow compared to other systems.

Help appreciated,
Jasper
