20MB isn;t that much - my work inbox is currently 410MB and the University
of Washington IMAP servers works really well - although I did convert to
using MBX format which speeded things up tremendously.

I'd say that processor and RAM aren't as important as I/O - spread your
mail partition across multiple disks if you can.
