Maildir or mbox??
Hi,
I was wondering if someone can tell me what the difference is exactly between maildir and mbox.
We have a few solaris 9 systems here and would like to get an imap server running on them. I have setup fetchmail so that it retrives remote pop3 mail into an account, and that mail is then visible in the CDE mailer..
What would be the best way to make this fetched mail available through an imap?
Ive seen several imap servers but they say they use the maildir format only..
Thanks

git-mailsplit
GIT-MAILSPLIT(1) Git Manual GIT-MAILSPLIT(1)
NAME
git-mailsplit - Simple UNIX mbox splitter program
SYNOPSIS
git mailsplit [-b] [-f<nn>] [-d<prec>] [--keep-cr] [--mboxrd]
-o<directory> [--] [(<mbox>|<Maildir>)...]
DESCRIPTION
Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" .. in the specified directory so you can process them further from
there.
Important
Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output patches in the correct order.
OPTIONS
<mbox>
Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from the standard input.
<Maildir>
Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the cur, tmp and new subdirectories.
-o<directory>
Directory in which to place the individual messages.
-b
If any file doesn't begin with a From line, assume it is a single mail message instead of signaling error.
-d<prec>
Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, different precision can be specified for the generated filenames.
-f<nn>
Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, start the numbering with 0004.
--keep-cr
Do not remove
from lines ending with
.
--mboxrd
Input is of the "mboxrd" format and "^>+From " line escaping is reversed.
