How is that a security violation?
IMAP supports shared folders, which could easily have multiple
concurrent access. Plus I often have two mail clients checking the same
account as I tend to leave my home computer on. Also, IMO, maildirs look
tider than most mbox structures, as mine's all hidden :P
I use reiserfs, so space isn't a problem. IMAP IDLE works nicely ;)
