I had the same query few days ago. I got a response about reducing gaps, but
keeping high numbers, eg. 1 99 becomes 99 100.
I use nnml. What I chose to do was to use an MH routine, folder.
So, folder -all -recursive -pack -verbose cleanly packed all my nnml
directories. I then applied nnml-gen-nov-databases.
Don't know the side effects as yet, but I guess it works. Those without MH
can perhaps write a Perl one-liner to renumber all the files in the
subdirectories of a directory.
