Heck I have had Maildir folders corruption with Courier.. if you can believe 
that is possible.

It took me 3 days to figure out what was wrong. Thankfully it was my home 
setup, but if it had happened at work it would have been very problematic..

Yes I have read of simmilar experiences. No program is without fault. One 
can only pick the one closest to what one needs.

Thanks for the warning. I aware of it.
That special format is likely what allows it to be as efficient as mentioned 
by others.

Thanks for all your feedback.
