Hi folks,

I'm currently thinking about using git for mail synchronization. The scenario:

* multiple hosts share a set of maildirs where new mails can be
  added or removed arbitrarily (using non-conflicting filenames,
  eg. their sha-hashes)
* on each host, the current tree is committed in some time
  interval
* the hosts pull from each other and merge in the other's trees.

Could this work well ?
