Comment(by snc@…):

 Hi mports.  I'm acknowledge your interest in a `mix` variant.  While I
 understand you desire this, and I will move to provide it as a variant,
 I'd like to know what you find beneficial from this.  In particular, the
 [http://www.washington.edu/imap/IMAP-FAQs/index.html#4.5 upstream website]
 says:
 > The rumors about mbx format being preferred are true. It is faster than
 the traditional UNIX mailbox format and permits shared access.

 After perusing their site do you still believe that mix format will be
 beneficial for you?

 Thanks and I'll have your variant in this weekend!
