Ah, but the latest version *does* support maildirs (I'm using it). Actually I did compile my own version to apply one patch that the maintainer hadn't yet applied. The bug caused a file to not be removed if a folder is deleted (not too big of a deal).
The thing I had trouble with was the pickiness of it. It wants your inbox maildir to be ~/mail/Maildir and doesn't seem to find it otherwise.
