Here is a feature I wish Apple might consider implementing:

   When Dovecot is compiled for Mac OS X and using Maildir,
   have all mail files be written to disk with a dedicated OSType
   (equivalent to the .eml extension).

This would make existing QuickLook generators and Spotlight importers 
(e.g. I'm happily using http://www.mew.org/feature/spotlight.html.en , 
which works based on OSType) automatically available to index the 
Dovecot Maildir.

[I haven't looked, but could this be a matter of modifying a single 
write function in Dovecot?]
