Actually, you bring up a good point on file locking...I installed under
linux from tarball and compiled it --with-flock --without-fcntl ...and I can
run 2 mutt sessions on the same mailbox and have one alter it, and then
when you go back to the other, it says it's been modified.  Something seem
incorrect about the locking there?  kernel 2.0.36.
