That's what it is :/   One directory per mail folder, with each email an 
individual file in that dir.

On the side I run a mini-ISP that offers (among other things) 
SMTP/IMAP/POP via exim/dovecot.  I use maildir for my customers, and am 
desperately searching for a better solution.  David Woodhouse and I talk 
off and on about using git for distributed mail storage.

OTOH, I wonder if a P2P-ish, sha1-indexed network service wouldn't be 
better for both a git fallback and email storage.
