I would like to use the email > stuff also. if you're talking about my version of upas, it's quite different than the one included in p9p. in p9p upas/fs (or nfs?) is a new program. it supports imap4 and presents a little different file structure. this means changes in faces and other programs. the one in my contrib is the same upas/fs from plan 9 with the addition of maildir support. my upas stuff did work for me two years ago. i used imap4 and maildir mailboxes. - erik
