Is this a bug-report/feature-request on the manual? If not, then can
it please be one?
I think the sections that show how to add a new mail backend should
"strongly recommend" specifying a directory (that's different from any
other directory).
How hard would it be to write code that checked for different backends
using the same directory, and throw an error if that happens? (What I
mean is, somebody with more time than me please do it!)
