<div>I think some of the confusion comes from the fact that
the setting name -- "archive max size" -- very strongly
implies (incorrectly) something like "the largest size of
message that will be archived" / "messages larger than this
will not be archived at all". It takes a fair bit of
attentive reading to overcome that initial implication and
reach the correct understanding, that "messages larger than
this will be archived immediately, without waiting for
archive_days".<br>

<div>But I haven't thought of a better name for this setting
either.<br>

<div style="font-family:Arial;">My training is originally in
both software engineering and Technical Communications and
this sounds like a REALLY good argument for changing the name
of the setting. "max_size_delayed_archive" -- where are they
held if not archived immediately?
"max_size_cached_before_archiving" ?<br>

<div style="font-family:Arial;">Yeah, I agree it's a kind of
crappy name. I honestly don't care what colour this particular
bikeshed gets painted. Pull requests at <a

Actually, I want to pull libsasl, but I don't know how to turn it
into a tarball so I can test it. Or how to get permission to push.<br>
<br>
And if I can change that name for y'all on a weekend, I guess I
could do it.<br>

<div style="font-family:Arial;">(feel free to come up with a
better name for 'proxyservers' while you're thinking about
config naming, though that has a much larger entrenched
installed base)<br>
