some more information would be helpful.
fsreaddir reads a directory. it doesn't send paths.
what is the ... that you're eliding?
i am guessing that you are looking at loadmboxfaces.
the results of dirread are used in that loop, but
dirread is most definitely not the problem.
when you click on a face, faces sends a plumbing
message containing the message directory.
that message should contain the entire directory,
or else the program the plumber invokes will not
know how to handle it.
plumber in turn will run
window -r 4 120 750 600 upas/nedmail -s $0
and given that there is no window script (yet),
that's going to fail.
you can see the plumbing messages by running
9p read plumb/showmail
or maybe
cat /home/quanstro/9/plumb/showmail
in another window. check that the path is the full one.
then: does
upas/nedmail -s /home/quanstro/9/upasfs/mbox/1/
work? it should. if not, figure out what nedmail is
doing wrong.
