I'm trying to migrate from ver 78 to 91 but I use maildir, not Mbox for file storage.

I've been running ver 78 and would like to migrate to ver 91 but I can't find a way to get it to change to maildir instead of mbox(option is greyed out). Did they just drop support for maildir in the newer versions?.

I have been running maildir for over a year now with no issues. I would like to get moved to the newer versions(64bit)

Maildir is an option here in 91.0.3 in Preferences/General at the bottom of the tab (see picture). I created a new profile with 91 and transferred some data from the 78 profile. This generally works better than using the entire 78 profile in 91.

nothing there that I can find. The choice for mbox(maildir is an option I presume) is in the account server settings page and that is greyed out , so unchangeable.

Is your result with a new profile or a re-used 78 profile?
