It's configurable. It can use the old MBOX format but the best option
for local mail is probably Maildir, which keeps a separate file for
each message and is lock-free.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maildir

If you have detailed questions, I'd suggest asking on the Evolution
list (evolution-list@xxxxxxxxx). You can check the archives at:

https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/

When posting on the list, be sure to mention your version of Evolution
(Help->About).
