See, this is where we run into two competing ideas as to what MH's original
innovation is.  Do people think it's:

1) The message store (1 file per message), instead of one file for the
   whole store.
2) Individual commands to perform message operations, as opposed to
   traditional monolithic MUAs.

Both.
