User-agent: |
Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/23.2 (gnu/linux) |
our imap server stores mail in maildir.
i get them through claws-mail and save them locally as mh (because
that's what claws does).
however, i understand that with gnus i have a choice.
is maildir preferable to mh as far as indexers are concerned?
does gnus prefer working with maildir as well? (i recall reading that
nnml is faster than nnmh though i don't know if that has anything to do
with maildir).
this exercise is to establish the local storage format for emails over
several years so they can be indexed for the purpose of search and retrieval.
