Also, I don't like the new folder names, seem too unnecessary for me. (I was expecting to the old MH folder names inside my Maildir.)  Also, the mails get stored as something like: 1602799622.116065_21187.hostname:2, not sure if this is the recommended way that files are stored in the Maildir format. I was expecting to have something that I could have control over.

This isn't strictly true. Some IMAP _servers_ require you to use such a 
scheme, but if you're not presenting the folders via IMAP there's no 
need for such a system.
