email hosting solution/alternative

Hello,
I have a dedicated server with cpanel and about of 1TB NVMe space alocated for it; one of my clients has about 70GB of email and roundcube and mozilla thunderbird are going slow for it.
The client doesn't want to delete any mail and what i can do for it to make the connection go smooth and fast.
All the emails are connected by imap, pop3 is not on option.
Any adwice for this situation?

Ask your client to archive all old emails and use the search function when he needs them.

70GB is a lot of email for a single client. No wonder things are slow. Personally, I'd reconsider the limits you have set up for clients and/or migrate them out to a third-party service that specializes in email services and that you know can handle big mailboxes. Good luck, that's one of those edge cases that scares me off from providing email to clients.

I can only imagine how many emails are 70GB worth of them

Still it would take years if not centuries for that shit to actually work, what was it called again brain link?

Archive email + Solr for searching

That's... a lot of mail OMG. Are there email providers that allow that much space for a single mailbox?

Most likely everyone as long as you're willing to pay?
My favourite mailbox.org provider additional quota pricing:

Premium plan

25 GB included

• 0 GB for €0.10/GB
  So additional 45GB would cost you €4.50 /m

Standard plan

10 GB included

• 0 GB for €0.20/GB
  So additional 60GB would cost you €12.00 /m

Then inbox.eu 100GB quota plan cost €9.99 /year (I don't have exprience with them, but they aren't new on the market), infomaniak.com from Switzerland advertise 3 TB (obviously overselling) of storage per user for €6,58 (3,29 first year) monthly and so on...
