Hi, I have objections against maildir too, but I tried to tackle it from different perspective. Store the maildir in zip file and use fuse-zip to manage it. It works sort of but it has two major disadvantages:
- fuse zip stores all changes in memory until unmounted - fuse zip (and libzip for that matter) creates new temporary file when updating archive, which takes considerable time when the archive is very big. Looking at the zip file format, it could be made so that all modifications would result only in appending new data to it (deleting is writing new directory index not containing the deleted file). I even made proof of concept libzip modification. Of course this solution would have some disadvantages too, but for me the advantages would win. At the moment I'm not sure if I want to continue working on that. Maybe if there would be more interested guys ...
