Cyrus is a bit more work. However, if you are having problems with large
folders (30K mails in a folder as you mentioned earlier) then you may wish
to look harder at it. I used Cyrus at one site for a while before moving to
Courier. In general I liked it, but there was some kind of bug (I forget
what) that I didn't feel like dealing with at the time.
