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 :) [ snip - shortened to what i like to reply ] No, at least MUAs like Evolution or Kmail which access a mailserver remotely through POP3 or IMAP protocoll do not have to care about maildir or mbox storage format on the server side. It's the job of the mailserver like UW-imapd or Cyrus-imapd or Courier-imapd i.e. They are the interface between what the user remotely sees through POP3 or IMAP connects and what the server stores on his side.
