The bulk of the work for mail is done by the mail filter. The crawler isn't a particularly interesting piece; it just looks in a certain directory. The main differentiation is KMail-specific code, which is why it's more suitable as KMailQueryable. We can add a MuttQueryable if there's a good reason for it. In most cases, the filesystem backend should handle it.
