A question about this, Evolution seems to use the mbox format.
Can I switch to maildir?

<possibly stupid question>
Other question, can I use a second programm like mutt and read
my mails? My Computer at work keeps running and running and
sometimes I use the computer at home to login into the company
network and I could read this way my emails.. At the moment I
have no real mailserver here..
