Nice, so eventually we should be able to specify the following instead of
faking out a maildir?
watch=mh:/var/spool/mlmmj/list.name/archive

In the case of mlmmj it's sufficient to watch the
/var/spool/mlmmj/list.name/index file for updates, but I don't know how well
this lends itself to other implementations (I am not at all familiar with MH).
