IMAP server extremely slow/times out

Anyone having problems with the DH IMAP server(s)? My connection to fetch headers in a folder either times out completely, and the folder does not have that much mail. It does have some large (3MB) attachments and I think the IMAP server maybe a bit overloaded and can't scan the headers fast enough.

Yes, similar (frustrating) problems.

I am wondering if there are networking issues between the IMAP server and the box that I ssh into. All my mail accounts are also shell accounts, so my mail is kept on my hosting box. It looks like when I check mail, I check through some other box.

same problems here. It's not just IMAP tho; I'm having time-outs with POP as well.

There's nothing on the blog and my support request has gone unanswered for 2.5 hours. I hope someone at DH is looking into this.

They listed a bunch of fixes, but it still hasn't done anything for my mail. Sigh.
