It claims to read both. It says nothing about "understands so well".
Each program has it own "understanding" of each "standard" format. Which is a way of saying that there are several flavours or even version of each format. It happens that dovecot uses the same flavour of mbox as pine, probably because they used or imported the library.
The other thing I don't know, but I think not, is whether dovecot can store some folders as maildir and others as mbox or whatever.
Not only do I not know either, I don't even know how it decided that the Account I set up should be for mbox, because I don't see a question like that. It's possible that there was a question in the short configuration when the app was first started, which would imply that one is stuck with a format once the app is loaded initially. This wouldn't bother me much, if I could choose a format globally.
Dovecot doesn't ask, AFAIK. It is a daemon. Kmail uses maildir by deefault, without asking. You can change the default globally, or per folder.
make any optional folders for sorting different topics. I think Thunderbird is like that as well, if I remember.
Yes, you can set several accounts in thunderbird (corresponding to the server account), and each can have several identities. An identity can adjust the signature, folders, the smtp sender. Very versatile. What you can not choose is the language for an identity, so that it uses a different "reply" template, default dictionary... It is a feature I would like.
Claws is not very flexible, and I am not sure it is for me. Were it not for Akonadi, I would be content with Kmail; as it is, I am considering purchasing a voodoo doll, naming it Akonadi Programmer, and sticking pins in it daily.
