parse Maildir e-mail

[thufir]

I want to parse Maildir e-mail with Java, or maybe Ruby.  However, I'm 
not totally clear on where the mail is.

I'm using dovecot-postfix and mailman to manage a small mailing list, 
just for personal use.  (Testing stuff out.)  The mail is delivered to 
thufir at dur.bouncme.net and resides as so:

 	
thufir at dur:~$ 
thufir at dur:~$ ll Maildir/

All I did was to point balsa to that directory and it seems to have 
created most of those directories.  Previously, the new messages were in 
Maildir/new and now seem to somewhere else.  But where?  I want to 
continue using Balsa to read these e-mails.  

However, in order to start parsing the e-mails with Java I should first 
find them.  Where did they go?


thanks,

Thufir
