What are the pro's and cons for/against both mail standards?
Won't the maildir format with all this separate mails not be more

In what way more difficult to maintain?
maildir makes backups "easier" as incrmental backups truly are
incremental. With standard mbox format the whole thing is backed up
every time if any new mail has come or mail downloaded, etc. There
are various performance reasons for maildir as well. Try Google. I
am sure you will find a whole ton of stuff comparing the two.
