I think anyone who reads mail from a POP server will be quite pleased with the changes an Emacs Lisp implementation will bring about. Two notable things: * Running count of messages retrieved. Very nice to have when you are pulling 300 messages down over a modem link. Win32 users rejoice :). * If I can figure out the backend interface and spooling scheme, messages can be spooled directly into their correct folders, bypassing the crashbox stage (which is pretty much redundant given the nature of POP3 maildrops), dramatically increasing spooling speeds. Or maybe someone else can cobble this together instead. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3 Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBMf+FDJ6VRH7BJMxHAQHEmwP8CSsTM0pG8L0dQmO1ZuH4+ui5/eDL+qII xCTSYHJOC5RzgjLVcBKqXg6rnKOyPPOUNqpqyrrH8kXzdYgX84qsus+hPTi32pAr 4hHcNXv1AUNx+bTDIj/2zOqFmr/fnSgYHus+M9eIVz18s6gERRcLx547ZYQMFwh5 /xvdT3uJKz4= =ImfH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Richard Pieri/Information Services \ If you're not receiving enough attention, \ try knocking over some very expensive http://www.dfci.harvard.edu/ \ antique lamps. -A cat's guide to life
