I forgot to include it in my first e-mail, sorry. Here it is:
https://git.claws-mail.org/?p=maildir-plugin.git

I re-read the articles that led me to choose mailbox and not MH, and
mailbox is actually a successor of MH, adressing some of its problems:

Also, neither getmail6 nor dovecot support the MH mailbox format,
so using maildir instead of MH gives me more portability.
