MTA is sendmail/milter.
I plan to change that mailbox thing when I get budget for a new

Mailbox format might not be a bottleneck in this application. It's
fairly efficient at appending new messages, and that is the only
common operation being performed on these backup mail spools.
The application is using maildir (that's the normal email server that
is using mailbox).

to do that.
What if they deleted the email before it got a chance to get synched?
However, in this case, it sounds like error exists between keyboard
