This seems to mean that if I go to
Edit->Preferences->Mail Accounts->Receiving Email
and then change the Server Type in the pull down menu from POP (as it is
now) to Maildir, then Evolution will continue to fetch my email from the
appropriate pop server, and then store it all in folders of maildir
format.
I don't think this is likely. I suspect that what you *really* mean is
that if some other program (say fetchmail) downloads email from the pop
server and stores it in maildir style folders, then Evolution can manage
it properly. Is this correct? If so, do you know any program to
convert my folders, now in mbox format, into maildir format?
Thanks - jon
