For a few weeks I have used sup to read the same mail on two hosts: an office desktop and a laptop. Each host fetches mail from the same IMAP server. I use the desktop all day, altering labels frequently, and consequently find reading from the laptop less useful. I want to sync labels across the two hosts. How much additional work does it take to turn an index dump into a sup-to-sup sync mechanism? Suppose that on one host you dump the index and send a signed message. This reaches the receiving host when you read mail there. Use it to update the index, and the receiving host has labels matching those on the sending host.
