Maildirs in Debian



Hello!

I just want to sense the environment about a to be proposed Debian
policy change with respect to mail handling.

Maildir delivery has lots of advantages over mbox spools, but the
latter is the only standard.

Almost all M*A's support both standards.

It would be a big relieve, if one could chose either of them at some
moment, and this choice would be recorded, let's say in
/etc/default/maildelivery

The M*A packages could sense this file and configure them accordingly,
or refuse to install if they cannot work under the required delivery
scheme.

Best Regards,

     Jorge-León
