[MlMt] Dipping my toe into MailMate - what will it happen?

Hi Ben,

Steve has already covered where messages are stored, I'd just add that each message is an individual eml file, not a mbox archive.

As for import, I went that route. MailMate simply imported the account settings, asking later that I insert password since it couldn't pull that information. The whole process was quick and seamless and I have issues to report with it. 

Hope that helps and do join us... The water's great :)
