So I guess the question is, is there any way in Courier to have it use the creation time of the file as the sorting mechanism rather than the filename? Or alternatively can anyone suggest how I can work around this problem with procmail?

I think the most recent version of procmail does this right.

3.15 is the most recent version of procmail. I set it to do maildir deliveries by default in authenticate.c, but does anyone know what I need to do to change the naming scheme?

BTW - Courier uses the filename in order to sort messages in order to avoid having to stat() each file when opening the folder. With a folder that has thousands of messages this is very noticeable, especially on Solaris.

Good point. Thanks for the info.
