Being stuck with Pine, which still does not do Maildir, and wanting
to be able to read my mails as distributed as I am working on documents
and software projects, I always dreamt of having all my mail in Git.

With filters, it should be relatively easy to do that. Before checking in,
the individual mailbox files are split, the contents are put into the
object database, and the mailbox file is replaced by a text file
consisting of the SHA1s of the mails.

Ideally, I would eventually not only teach Pine to understand Maildir
format, but read and store the mails in a Git backend. Alas, I am way too
lazy for that.

You do know about Eduardo Chappa's patches for pine? In particular http://staff.washington.edu/chappa/pine/info/maildir.html.
