Well...it's an interesting twist that it's maildir by default, but when we recently set up her account (about two months ago) I imported mail from Thunderbird, which I think is mbox format. So is it right to assume it would take those files and re-import to mbox. Also, it's a POP3 account. Does that matter? Actually this raises an interesting question that I never thought of...how do I know what format is currently being used?
