You're right...

... and yet searching seems to be very fast (but with fewer options than
PowerMail, unless I'm missing something).

I'd rather have separate message files than a single monolithic
database. So this is another way that PowerMail could go.

I'm not sure what's so wrong with having thousands of message files -
most application packages (e.g. Safari) contain thousands of resource files.
