btw: What are the actual advantages of sdbox over maildir?
- Not moving files from new/ to cur/ directory
- Not renaming files when changing message flags
- Not readdir()ing directories (although maildir_very_dirty_syncs=yes helps a lot with this)
Basically less disk I/O and making it possible to have mailboxes with a huge number of messages without everything slowing down horribly.
