Folder Format for my setup
Hi all
I've read about Mbox and Maildir at the Mutt wiki. I'd apreciate more
personal opinions on which format could be better for my case in particular:
I've just installed Gentoo Linux and now I intend to setup a mail system
with Mutt. My CPU is an AMD Sempron 1500 mhz, 256 RAM. My filesystem is
ReiserFS 3.6.
Usually, I receive about 20 to 60 messages per day, depending on how active
I am at mailing lists.
I'd like to know, for example, wheter there are features that don't exist or
don't work well with one of the two folder formats, if one of them have
theoretically better performance in general, what is the best format to
manage messages (move, copy, save...), either using Mutt or other programs.
Is it true that Maildir has better performance while loading folders? And
about file corruption consequences for each one?
Many thanks
Cleverson
