Could you enumerate some of these? It sounds like we've a quorum of
Maildir hotheads (myself included) who must have encountered many of

Personally I use mutt to access maildirs directly and direct other MUAs to
use IMAP, and let dovecot do the filesystem access.

No, he's right. After reading r.m. for a couple of years, I feel capable
