Re: Maildir or mailbox

hi,
  You need to create Maildir and its subdirectories under user's home 
directory../ Directory structure of Maildir mailbox is as follow:
1. Maildir
2. Maildir/new
3. Maildir/cur
4. Maildir/tmp
Owner of these directories should set to related user and permission 
should be 700../
Now if you need to convert your old mails to Maildir format then visit the 
site www.qmail.org and download the perl tools that convert old sendmail 
style mails to Maildir format../ 
Note that you should put that all converte mails under cur or new 
subdiretores../

Rgds,
Dhiren
