Actually people saying mbox is a bad database are in principle right (I never liked maildir either: dumping metadata into file names seemed to me a bit disgusting too, but I disgress). But there's something special about mail databases which eases that a bit: records (i.e. mails) are *mostly* immutable (save for some metadata), so cleverly written libs (mutt, dovecot) can be suprisingly good despite all. But then when I see people proposing XML as structured data representation, I suddenly grow very sad...
