Long time no blog

Massive changes are coming to minig. Real thread sorting, by message actions, etc.

We added a second minig installation to our test setup. We now have a MiniG setup running on our production mail server, and another one running on a lenny 64bit kvm. Both are using our production mail server.

The one running in kvm allows a first round of testing on live mailboxes. Performance testing is easier on this one, as the IMAP load and the java load are cleanly splitted on two servers.

With this new setup I already identified an easy optimisation : the select imap command forces Cyrus to write a log line. Storing the selected imap folder in the org.minig.imap lib might provide sensible speed improvements to initial mailbox indexing.
