Or we/you could move from to its own package. :-) Anyway, bsdmainutils offers just a small part of the functionality mailutils from offers, e.g. it *only* works with mbox mailboxes. Other tools that have been removed also offer more functionality now. I'd love to get rid of it as people tend to expect this additional functionality. > > [email protected] VfL Borussia!
