Nope, I did an FC1 install a couple of months ago, and the version of
dovecot that ships with FC1 includes the ability to do Maildir.

Now, getting dovecot, postfix, and Mutt to all look at the directories the
same way was interesting. :)

Note:  If you do maildir instead of mbox, any procmail scripts that you had
will change.  I don't have the FC1 box up, or I'd post the ones I was using
for testing.  Sorry.
