You can tell Postfix to use Maildir, mbox etc... where it drops mail. There's no email app that's Postfix-aware... an MUA (Mail User Agent... like Evolution, mutt, Kmail, etc...) may have to know how to read Maildir's, mbox, whatever :) Actually, Maildir is one of the few good things that Dan Bernstein showed us in a way that anyone can use with Freedom. > But in the big picture, it comes out to a dead-heat.

M4 is ther to make your life tenfold easier... you just try to configure sendmail with it's own files... check sendmail.cf instead of sendmail.mc to get a real load of tearful configuration.
