 It makes the most sense to me to just alter the 'normal' (to me at least)
method of laying out mail: a 'mail' directory, and instead of having the
different mail folders in mailbox format, just use Maildirs instead.

~/mail/qmail/{cur,new,tmp}
~/mail/ProFTPD/{cur,new.tmp}
etc.

Sub-maildirs are a little bit of a problem (because "cur", "new" and "tmp"
are taken already), but submaildirs are also not needed in the vast
majority of cases.
