I think we could write a simple implementation of MailRepository over Javamail MailStore and support the UID specific behaviour via reflection.

We do not support directly Maildir, but any Javamail Store.
That said, it is true that we'll never distribute James with that implementation of Maildir, but many users could find it useful to be able to download the GPL library, put it in the SAR-INF/lib folder, add a configuration in the config.xml (simply the store url, as Javamail already automatically handle the "providers" declaration).

---------------------------------------

We cannot use any GPL code.  Period.  It will not happen.   If someone wants to 
write a new maildir implementation using an acceptable license, that's fine.
