Oh bite me! :-)

You know this sort of thing falls well outside POSIX. It would be inside a 
non-portability #ifdef.

But if you want me to get all pedantic, I could write a protocol interface, 
spoken through a named socket - which is POSIX portable - through which anyone 
could write their own message store interface adapters as external interfaces.

Actually, that's my preferred scheme.  But it's not trivial to do – on either 
side – so FUSE seemed like a more practical solution.
