Space overhead with maildir is excessive to my way of thinking. I keep 
voluminous email archives and if each of those messages was a separate 
file, I probably would not be able to use the default file system inode 
allocation ratio.

One thing I miss from NTFS under Windows is the ability to compress 
individual files. I used to do this with older mailboxes.
