Thanks to all who sent your suggestions.  I found a solution that worked
exactly for what I wanted and one that might come in handy in the future.

I just need to muck about a bit more with the code to make sure that any
decision to migrate to a hybrid mbox/maildir setup with a test series
release isn't one in vain.  :)
