I think that the conditional functions (the ones you only use in the IF
statement) proposed by [EMAIL PROTECTED] shold be in maildrop because
in a tyipical filter these are evaluated each time a message is
delivered. The imperative others like mkdir(), rename(), and the
functions that Mitch propose are evaluated in "rare" cases, so we could
fork a process. Having to fork one or more proccess to verify some
conditions for each message to be delivered is lame. What do you think
Sam?
