2. What's going to happen to /var/spool/mail? That looks like a mbox thing. I'd much rather have all my mail in one place, rather than in two places like now.

In my case, I've told Postfix to deliver mail in Maildir format into '.imap' in the user's home dir. So, /var/spool/mail goes unused for me.

By the way, the standard (FHS) location for mailboxes is /var/mail nowadays. So /var/spool/mail should go unused for everybody (unless, as is common, it's a symlink to /var/mail).
