I read that is a better format to ue when there are more than a couple
of thousand mail messages kept.

But, I suppose maildir was invented for a reason... :-)
Maildir is there to keep you from screwing up, if you have several
10.000' mesages in your folders... My own ~/Maildir/ holds now
around 7 Million messages in around 1400 Mailfolders...
One of the biggest folders are <debian-user> 490.000 Msg, <lkm>
420.00 msg and <debian-user-german> 230.000 msg.
Try to open such Mailboxes without Maildir...
And if new messagers are arriving, lockig will kill your nervs.
