# Specify the order of the headers to appear when displaying a message

unhdr_order * # forget the previous settings
hdr_order date from subject to cc

First, use a mbox to maildir type converter to migrate your existing mails
(plenty available at http://www.cr.yp.to)
Second, reconfigure sendmail to deliver to maildirs (actually, you reconfigure
your local delivery agent - newer procmails do maildir delivery, or try
maildrop - http://www.flounder.net/~mrsam/maildrop ..)
re exim - yeah, exim can easily do maildirs. no hassles
This transport is for courier imap's vmailmgr -
vmailmgr_trn:
driver = appendfile
maildir_format = true
directory = /var/${domain}/users/${local_part}
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
Third, there's a variable $mbox_type - set it to "maildir" in .muttrc
