42,641 emails in one folder
Kevin uploaded a really cool webmail fix last night... It used to be that if I had a more than a few thousand messages in a folder, I'd get an ugly IMAP error when I try to open that folder due to the size of the IMAP operations it was doing. The fix made this process more efficient.
I just loaded one of my IMAP folders that has 42,641 emails in it and it came up in 4 seconds! Way to go Kevin and Steve!
This fix is only in the Neptune version of webmail, which hasn't been released to everyone yet - but if you don't have it, its coming.
Bill,
Always a pleasure to see the improvements! I wanted to convey an issue I have run across recently:
Some government sites are filtering out HTML email traffic due to security concerns. Unfortunately, it appears they way webmail packages and sends the data (through the webmail web interface) -- the information is lost. We have assumed because of the HTML..?.. If I learn more of this, I will reply.

Thanks. Do you know what appliance/software they're using for that filtering?
