Hi, Konrad > Does mail.local support delivery to the maildir-format?
Mail.local does not, but its successor `maidag' does. See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-mailutils/2008-03/msg00000.html section "New utility `maidag'", for more detailed information. You will need mailutils 1.9.90 and the above link will tell you where to get it. > And how do you in that case specify the target mailbox is in > maildir-format? In the simplest case, you put in your mailutils.rc the following: mailbox { mailbox-pattern "maildir:/var/spool/mail/${user}"; mailbox-type "maildir"; }; This means that mailboxes are of type "maildir", are located in the directory /var/spool/mail and are named after account names of their owners. The `mailbox-type' stanza tells that any new mailboxes should be created in maildir format as well. More complex setups are possible as well, e.g. on my servers I have: mailbox { mailbox-pattern "maildir:/var/mail;type=index;param=2;user=${user}"; mailbox-type "maildir"; }; which means that maildir folders are stored under /var/mail, in a two-level directory hierarchy indexed by the first two letters of the account name, e.g. mailbox for user `gray' is /var/mail/g/r/gray/. Your mileage may vary:) > I've been looking for an LDA that supports Sieve and Maildir for a while. Maidag supports both. Mailutils 1.9.90 is ready for the release, but the documentation is yet scarce. So feel free to ask if you need any help.
