Subject: Filename extension for nnml files?
Date: Fri, 05 Jun 2009 10:01:54 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2my8mrd7x.fsf@nwalsh.com> (raw)

I've been using nnml for years. Now I'm using it on Mac and I realize
that if the files were named 'nnnnn.txt' instead of just 'nnnnn' that
they'd be "text files" and would get indexed by Spotlight. Really,
mail is about the only thing I'd ever want Spotlight to index anyway.

It looks like I could also fix this problem by telling the Mac that
files of type 'public.data' (which is what files named 'nnnnn' appear
to be) are mail. But since I don't know what else might turn up as
public.data, I'm a little reluctant to do that.

Thoughts?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
