Just out of curiosity, why would you want to use both formats for storage?
Some of the users have personal preferences. We default to mbox, but some people would rather use Maildir. They take care of delivery
Isn't maildir format required to support imap clients?
No.
I think the mbox format is particularly well suited for (mailing list) archives which are kept around in read- mostly form. They may also be a better fit for some legacy mail clients that read mail directly on the server.
