attachments I'm mostly concerned about)?
I think I'll make the dbox format itself support both, but at least
initially it's done only for attachments.
By the way... it just occurred to me...
We are talking about Single Instance Storage across the entire
namespace, not just on a per dbox file, right?
Will conversion of an existing mail store take place automatically
(as users are converted to dbox), or will there be a migration tool
of some kind?
Convert plugin can be used to do that. I was thinking about making
maildir -> dbox conversion superfast by allowing the maildir files be
used directly as dbox files. Only when some dbox metadata needs to be
written the file will have to be rewritten into dbox format.
Interesting - so they would auto-self-convert only when necessary?
Impressive...
