Are the boxes doing anything else, perhaps running the IMAP > daemon that Horde/SquirrelMail talk to? Uh, well...Squirrelmail is simply a webpage. The number of simultaneous users is defined by the web server application, aka Apache. IMAP doesn't HAVE to be on the same box. You can use SM to connect to an another server running your mail. A webpage that scales better doesn't really make much sense. It's the web server app that determines how a web site scales. It just depends on how you configure your web server app and that the web server has plenty of resources to handle your requests. -- --Matthew Sims --<http://killermookie.org>
