In order to improve the efficiency of my backups, I intend to change
how I store email. Currently I am using venerable mailbox/mbox to
store email, and I plan to change over to Maildir . I plan to keep
using mutt and sendmail/procmail (which are Maildir compatable),
and have no plans to convert to qmail . I've found tools that can
convert the old, stored mail. The configuration change is apparently
pretty simple. I think I know how to do this, but it is what I don't
know that I don't know that scares me.
Does anyone have any experience with Maildir, or with converting to
Maildir from mbox? What stupid newbie mistakes should I watch for?
