It is now fact that 60% of all web servers are now *ix and Linux has
just (2 quarters ago) surpassed Netware for NFS. <g>

Actually there are 4 types (if you define them by the different MTAs),
but 2 *basic types* of mailbox format - one is called MH style which
treats each individual piece of mail separately, as a separate "email"
unto itself in a directory or folder, and there is the mbox format
which appends each mail to the last, so there is a spool of mail in a
"mailbox" directory or folder. I use both formats.
