[DBMail] is an IMAP server that uses an SQL database backend to store the emails. It's possible to improve the IMAP server performance by optimizing the SQL server.
=== MySQL ===
Compile MySQL 5.0.x with LinuxThread if you are using FreeBSD 4.x or 5.x, since that will make it works faster.

=== Known bugs ===
Server-side sorting is broken in DBMail 2.0.7. Don't use server-side sorting if you get the following error:
<code>
ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server.
Query: SORT (FROM) ISO-8859-1 ALL
</code>
