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>

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

<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 href="https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/">https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/</a> gratefully received.<br></div>

<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></div>
