What are the main reasons for switching from Babyl to mbox format in
Rmail? Are there technical or conceptual problems with the Babyl
format, or is it just a case of wanting compatibility with a more
widely used format?
I can see two main reasons:
1. The format as you said
2. Procmail splitting (and anti-spam countermeasures)
Not to forget that, as someone told me, Emacs can only deal with 128Mb
file.
Here are my reasons to use this branch.
Xavier
