Javamail - MBOX problem

Hi,

I notice that the folder name for MBOXes is the full absolute path name. 
This seems to me to be a really bad idea. Firstly, it means that folder 
names do not remain constant when the folder hierarchy moves. Secondly, 
it doesn't make much sense to the user - he doesn't care about the full 
path, he only wants to know the relative path from the top. Thirdly, 
folder names change when mounted by different operating systems.

I have implemented a MS PST mail format javamail plugin, that uses 
libpst and is built on top of gnu mbox plugin. It uses readpst.exe to 
extract the files to a tmp directory of mbox  files. The trouble is, the 
folder name keeps changing every time it is opened because it is a tmp 
directory.

It seems to me MBOX should be changed to use relative path names and use 
a consistent "/" path separator. If I make this change will the patch be 
accepted?
