Use this option for larger installation to create additional "alphabetized" subdirectories to the Mailbox path. This is a performance fix for Windows systems where file display can be slow for directories containing many thousands of subdirectories. Specify a number in the Number of characters from alias to path prefix box. For example, in the above screenshot: User john will have messages stored in <path>\jo\hn\john User george will have messages stored in <path>\ge\or\george |
