What are the things to look out for? I'm not sure what you're asking; you're using mbox now and would like to switch to maildir? I think the biggest obstacle will probably be your POP3/IMAP servers - depending on which servers you're running, they may not speak maildir at all. Exim and procmail have no such qualms. (Or did you mean you use POP3 and IMAP clients to fetch mail? In that case, it's not significant; exim and/or procmail will be doing the delivering anyway.) I can help you better if you'll give some more info about your current mail "flow". good times, Vineet -- Currently seeking opportunities in the SF Bay Area Please see http://www.doorstop.net/resume.shtml
