The mail-sources code currently only allows a single server to
receive mail.  While it would be possible to circumvent that, it
would be a hassle.

With two different servers, you could distinguish between the
nnml+ml:foo groups (for mailing lists) and the nnml+pm:foo groups
(for personal mail).

But with one server, you can distinguish between nnml:ml.foo and
nnml:pm.foo which IMHO is just as good.  What do you think?
