I used to use Emacs VM. It's what I used between Rmail and Gnus. MULE makes Emacs a non-starter for mail. MULE assumes that all buffers are mult-byte unless explicitly told otherwise. MULE's behavior has irrecoverably damaged and lost mail for me and others in the past. It cannot be disabled globally. RMS refuses to change this behavior, insisting that it isn't broken. Therefore I will not use Emacs for mail. I cannot afford the risk of MULE eating my mail again. -- Rich P. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
