Nobody knows. Being Google, they will use some funny storage. Who knows, perhaps Bigtable [2], to better rummage through your mails :) You fetch the mails from Google using some protocol (e.g. IMAP). How they end up in your computer depends on the mail client you use. > Right now, I am using the webmail Webmin interface. Sometimes I use Evol= ution. Other > times I use Thunderbird.

Judging by the Wikipedia page [1] it only wants to do Maildir.
