it should be a regular file (mbox format). balsa can also use Maildir and
MH mailboxes (which are directories with special stuff). in my previous
example i used a mbox to keep simple as offhand (urgh. senility setting in.
i wrote that code :)) i'd say balsa creates a mbox folder from the initial
config druid but not a mh/maildir folder (as they are ambiguous).

you can always reassign the "special" folders later.
