Hi Baba san.

I prefer the maildir.
If the mbox get corrupt you can loose all. With maildir you can get some files 
corrupted but not all. 
If you receive a lot of emails, just really hundreds and all them are of few 
kbytes, so you may have to worry about the file system that best respond to 
this kind of storage.
