Hello,

I've been doing things with the mailbox-maildir code, while also learning a bit about namespaces, and I came across this:

org.apache.james.mailbox.maildir.MaildirStore.maildirDelimiter = ".";

Simple question: If I simply changed this to '/' (and reinstated the commented-out code in that file that references it), would this *in theory* be all that'd be required to enable a hierarchical on-disk layout?

I have the luxury of breaking stuff at the moment, and I like the idea of the maildir hierarchy being mirrored in the actual filesystem. To my mind it would have the benefit of relieving the (albeit not too onerous) limitations on subdirs-per-dir, and be more intuitive to boot.

I'd just welcome a heads-up if anyone who knows the Mailbox codebase better than I (so, pretty much anyone) happens to know that it's going to be a lot more work than it looks like it might be.

Thanks,
Robin Bankhead
