Hi Erik,

Thanks for the question. I want to sync multiple email accounts into
local stores. I was thinking each local store would be a "virtual
server" in *Server*.

Since I have multiple accounts with different modes of use, I imagine
the benefits of this scheme would be to allow different and independent
ways of syncing, storing, backing up, indexing and searching the local
stores.

Are there downsides to this approach (other than that notmuch doesn't
support it) that I am missing?

Or are there benefits to putting them all in one maildir that I am
missing?

Thanks - George
