If you want to implement a new "mailbox" for imap you should have a look at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/james/imap/trunk/ . Especially in the store and jpa module. For a maildir implementation I'm currently thinkin about using lucene for building the "search index" and using normal files for emails.

Hope, it's clear what I intend to do.
