DAOS and many mail files

What about the same file attachment in many existing mail files? When the same mail with large attachment was sent to many users. Does DAOS would keep after upgrade only one file?

Subject: daos question

If you migrate existing mail files to DAOS (using compact -c -daos on) there will only be one copy of every attachment stored in DAOS

Hope this helps

Subject: Be sure to enable DAOS on your all your mail.box as well

I’d only do that once the majority of your mail files were using DAOS however.

Subject: thanks

I confirm this: I run DAOS Estimator and have got following results:
