Yes, just like nnmail chooses a time to move mail from the spool to
~/Mail (or wherever).

Well, I have nnmaildir-request-scan now, but before that, I was doing
it in -request-list, which seemed to work well enough.  Before that, I
had it in -retrieve-headers, because I couldn't deduce from the
documentation that that was a bad place to do it.
