Here's hoping the small team of people who are passionate about email will add clean and efficient native local maildir storage support to Thunderbird.

I'd be happy with state-of-the-art biff technology. Every time it's requested, the developers reply that nobody really needs it, because nobody really uses local mail delivery anymore. Despite the counter-evidence of users *requesting* it, you'd think none of the TB developers had ever heard of "cron."

And let's have "clean and efficient" IMAP support too please.

It *doesn't support maildir*?! Yet people *use* it for nontrivial amounts
of mail?

Dear holy writhing Cthulhu.
