I was commenting on the use of semi-colons, not the format of Maildir
filenames. Colons would be interesting on an NTFS filesystem in that they're
used to specify streams:
,----[ Same environment as previous example ]
| D:\home\davep\x> dir
| 2/10/2003 5:10p <DIR> .
| 2/10/2003 5:10p <DIR> ..
|
| D:\home\davep\x> echo Hello > foo.txt
|
| D:\home\davep\x> echo World > foo.txt:1
|
| D:\home\davep\x> dir
|
| Volume in drive D is Drive-D Serial number is CCB1:A09A
| Directory of D:\home\davep\x\*
|
| 2/10/2003 5:10p <DIR> .
| 2/10/2003 5:10p <DIR> ..
| 2/10/2003 5:10p 7 foo.txt
| 7 bytes in 1 file and 2 dirs 4,096 bytes allocated
| 74,421,256,192 bytes free
|
| D:\home\davep\x> type foo.txt
| Hello
|
| D:\home\davep\x> type foo.txt:1
| World
`----
IIRC they're invalid as part of a directory name.
