Hi Alexander,

A> Why?

Simple. Because it has caused people problems before. V2 has the
most stable index format yet and is the safest yet. But the advice
should still be not to use Inbox as a long term store.

Not really. Databases use tried and tested ISAM and direct access
methodology not applicable to mail dumps in the same way. While I
take your point, a history of problems says otherwise.
