One advantage of cydir over dbox was mentioned by Mark above re
incremental backups - with dbox, you'd still have to backup the
entire mailbox file, while with cydir, you'd only have to copy
newer messages.
I was thinking about making dbox configurable. If it is run in
one-mail-per-file mode there's no need for locking either.
Ahhh... ! Ok, that would be 'a good thing'... :)
Curious, though - why *not* make cydir a real usable format, if its
performance is so good? Is it only/because there is no good solution to
the extra risk of data loss if indexes get lost/corrupted?
