Would you consider moving the non-Elm-specific utilities into their own separate package? Most of the following I think could benefit from being made available to a broader audience. usr/bin/answer mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/checkalias mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/fastmail mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/frm mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/listalias mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/messages mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/newalias mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/newmail mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/nfrm mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/printmail mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/readmsg mail/elm-me+ usr/bin/wnewmail mail/elm-me+ (Not intimately familiar with many of these -- no doubt some of them will only work with Elm aliases or something.) Meanwhile, I'm sure I can cook up a simple shell function with formail(1) for my own needs, so this is definitely a wishlist-level report. -- System Information Debian Release: 2.0 Kernel Version: Linux away 2.0.34 #1 Sun Feb 28 21:48:09 EET 1999 i586 unknown --------------------------------------- Received: (at 113445-done) by bugs.debian.org; 28 Sep 2002 22:20:44 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Sep 28 17:20:43 2002 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from jagor.srce.hr [161.53.2.130] (root) by master.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.12 1 (Debian)) id 17vPx5-0006EL-00; Sat, 28 Sep 2002 17:20:43 -0500 Received: from fuzz.uucp ([EMAIL PROTECTED] [193.198.130.73]) by jagor.srce.hr (8.12.2/8.12.2) with ESMTP id g8SMJgZH023263 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sun, 29 Sep 2002 00:19:43 +0200 (MEST) Received: from mvela by fuzz.uucp with local (Exim 3.36 #1 (Debian)) id 17vPJW-000091-00 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sat, 28 Sep 2002 23:39:50 +0200 From: Matej Vela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: elm-me+: fmt would be useful as a standalone utility References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 28 Sep 2002 23:39:50 +0200 In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Lines: 14 User-Agent: Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.2 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: Matej Vela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-milter (http://amavis.org/) Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] era eriksson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > On Wed, 25 Sep 2002 11:42:40 +0200, Matej Vela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Have you tried mailutils?

The thing is, elm-me+ utilities use a common library which is more than twice the size of mailutils. Thanks, Matej
