in plan 9: using upas/fs, i mounted my gmail inbox over imap, then
started acme. at some point, the acme window disappeared. newly
received messages in my gmail inbox continue to get marked as read
shortly after they arrive. my assumption is that upas/fs is still
accessing the mailbox. how can i prove (or disprove) this, and stop
it from happening?

echo close mbox > /mail/fs/ctl
i don't know if nupas handles this correctly or not. but i
seem to recall that it does. it's a matter of issuing the right
imap command when you're fetching the message body for
internal use, rather than for viewing.

should this work even when my namespace doesn't reflect the gmail
mount? the rio window where i started upas/fs died and disappeared
(note: without my intervention) sometime last night. i can't find any
trace of the gmail messages on my system.
i sent the command above, but messages in my gmail inbox are
still getting marked as read a few seconds after they arrive.
in the future i'll try nupas.
thanks,
