I would like to have these file repositories be as "smart" as possible so
when they see content of a particular type, they can move it to the new
version appropriately.  I was figuring the would be able to handle the pair
files that are now, so you could seamlessly upgrade your client.  This would
take some planning since you need to determine how you detect that a file is
of a particular format, how you split apart/migrate, and how you go from a
MimeMessage data to Mail data.  Yeah, probably a proposal would be best for
this much of a change.
