So does your Linux MDK 9.1 client keep files on the Samba server via SMB
and not NFS?

I'm using NFS, on RH7.3. Evo 1.4.4 has all my old mail (~1.3GB) in
maildir format (somewhere I read that it was more efficient than mbox
and more reliable than the MH format I'd been using for a long time).

They're called "Local Folders", but they're really sitting on a remote
machine.
