Perhaps: > > =item -o MFOLDER, --output=MFOLDER > > Or is "mfolder" not that bad and we ditch --output instead? Yeah, I don't like "mfolder" either. In the --thread{,s} case, consistency seemed worth it to me because either one sounded okay, and a one character difference is easy to not notice. But in this case, I think --output is the better name, so if we're dropping one, I'd vote to cast out --mfolder. Using MFOLDER rather than PATH as the metavariable seems a bit confusing to me because the target isn't a directory for --format values other than "maildir".
