Danny/Noel,

Did you say you had spoken with an author of an mbox java implementation?

I checked out EyeBrowse which has a read-only implementation of mbox files, and found a decent description of mbox (http://email.about.com/library/weekly/aa111300a.htm), and with a regex library in James, this looks really easy. Actually looking over eyebrowse's mbox parser (all of 313 lines), I don't know if it wouldn't just be faster to write it ourself.

Anyway, I don't want to reinvent the wheel if someone's already going to work on this, but seems like I can throw this together for 3.0 head without much work.
If we want James to be used by ASF, it must IIUC work with Eyebrowse.
And Eyebrowse uses mbox format.

So the options are:
1) store as mbox
2) make a simple conversion script
3) make eyebrowse use the James format
