The end goal is to have sub folders.  I've got that working with 
mailbox.  What I did was to create a subdir and inside that subdir I 
created the files.  If I was using maildir then I could have a folder 
that stores mail and a sub folders too.  With the mbox format I get a 
directory entry in Thunderbird and files (folders) under that.   It does 
exactly what I need it to do.  I'm trying to organize my folders a bit.  
I have thousands of emails.  I never delete.
