[9fans] upas/fs setup gmail and plan9port

[fernanbolando]

Hi all

I was wondering what are the differences between the upas p9p in contrib?
I would like to setup my gmail account through p9p. I read a few email 
back that upas in p9p was "buggered" is it ok now? 

Without my cpu server I am forced to use my linux laptop for some of my 
work. I am trying to offload some of stuff I do from linux to p9p. Right 
now I only use page to read pdf files. I would like to use the email 
stuff also.

regards
Fernan

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.
