The type should be "smtp mail text" not "data"

My archive.rules line looks like:
FromOrTo: *@mydomain.com /data/mail_archive/mydomain.com/

What is the syntax to get it to make proper maildir archives?

Thanks,
Bill

      I'm archiving email in both mbox and maildir formats.  I'm
      looking for a way to read the maildir archives on a Windows
      system.  I haven't been able to find any clients that can do
      that directly so I was thinking about just reading them via
      the imap server.   Problem is the file names don't match what
      my maildirs look like.


      My archive directory created with MailScanner looks like:

      0654B1312B3.9394D  63AC812F683.5909B  8625A12F6F5.BAFDB 
      D348B12F6F5.DD8F2

      And a sample maildir on my system looks like:

      x3 .SimpleShare # ls -la
      total 32
      drwx------   6 vmail 35003 4096 May  6 12:17 .

      I need a way to get the filenames and direcotyr structure
      setup in a way that the IMAP server can serve the messages.

      Any help would be greatly appreciated.
