It was probably Pike that said a cache is bugs waiting to happen. :-)
Maildir seems ill-suited to MH's needs as an `emails are files, use
Unix' store. But then that wasn't its aim. Does the rest of the world
just need IMAP access to the emails, e.g. for webmail? Perhaps
corrupting MH for Maildir is the wrong way around. Perhaps altering
MH's store to have fast scan as well as rmm, and have an IMAP server
that understands that new format, and how it can change under its feet,
is simpler.
