Thanks Paul. I think there are many mh users not on this list. I didn't join for years because I didn't consider myself a "worker" (just a user = on the announce list). And even as a reader of this list, I'm just as likely to google for nmh to find the latest source. re, N On 29/03/2006, a

We could make it an X-Header (X-MH-Bcc?). Most other email agents don't show extra X headers, so it we achieve security through obscurity ;-) re, N [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sat, 07 Jan 2006 09:22:44 PST, Bill Wohler said: [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: dist should be enhanced so that if the

I didn't know about .netrc, will check it out. I can see a whole bunch of empty directories being a waste, but .mh_sequences does need to be stored somewhere. Perhaps there should just be a $HOME/[Mail/].imap-mh_sequences that has all of them? Your syntax idea is a good one, in fact, an URI

I am doing it -- in fact, I have a perl module that does basic scan, show, refile and rmm. It also supports hierarchical default mime part display, i.e. if there is a text/plain part, it shows that, if not, it shows a text/html part, etc. Finally, it supports mime part viewing, i.e. I can say

Is FUSE platform independant? It seems to be fairly Linux-oriented, but I may not be digging deep enough. This page http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/OperatingSystems doesn't seem to list many OSes yet, but it may be out of date. From a user perspective, my approach would be invisible

I want to do IMAP too. I have an idea for design: 1. a .rc file with credentials (i.e. username, password and IMAP server) 2. All mh folders as normal, except if a directory has a ".imaprc" (or similar) file in it, then it has no real files -- it is a reference to an IMAP folder 3. Use imapl

I'm sure I remember someone talking about being able to use Mac OS X's 'Mail' with mh -- and indeed, symbolicly linking "~/Library/Mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX.imapmbox/CachedMessages" to "imap-in" seems to make "scan +imap-in" and "show +imap-in 1" work just fine. However, I would also like to be

I'm a long-time mh user (10+ years?) but possibly a fairly basic one (i.e. I don't necessarily know all the options available in its many features). I have found that the only way Windows users can easily see my attachments is doing them this way: #application/msword; name="whattheusersee
