Thought I would just jump in.
Dovecot has "single instance attachment storage" (SIS) as well as its own native
mdbox binary format (multiple emails per file indexed efficiently).
The SIS is a feature that I am really excited about since we have multiple user
receiveing the same email - it really saves on storage space.
Kind regards,
Didar
