Since everything is in one domain on our system, it sounds like you are
saying we can stay with what we have. I'm wondering though how difficult it
would be to change to unixheirarchysep method. Does this simply change the
way that the server presents the mailbox information to the client, and,
thus, require changes to the cyrus database files or does it actually
require changes to how the files/directories are stored on the disk? If
it's just the cyrus database, is this difficult to convert? I'm guessing
there is as you would want to deploy this at Fastmail, right?
