Except that B [mc] don't honor any desired message protection.
Imagine my surprise when I found a whole mess of mail messages with
644 perms instead of 600.  Fortunately all my folders were created
with MH so they still weren't accessible.  I've gone back to rcvstore
for now.  I don't expect B [mc] to read my .mh_profile for the
msg/folder-protect specs but it'd be nice if there was some sort of
hook available (as there is for splitting, btw) in which I could set
the umask before moving and reset it after.  I prefer to run Emacs
with my default umask.  It'd be even better if it were available for
mail group creation as well.
