Check out Rob> MAIL_USE_MAILLOCK and HAVE_TOUCHLOCK. I think that it is probably fine like it is, except that it's not nfs safe without libnfslock. It could probably be rewritten some to call on our liblockfile, rather than doing it internally the way it does. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm not motivated to do this today... It works like it is, for me. Someone who needs the nfs safe version ought to tackle it. I don't imagine it will take more than an afternoon of hacking. The XEmacs version, as shipped with XEmacs-20.5-beta, has some changes. The diff is attached, to save anyone the trouble of generating one themselves. A quick look over tells me that there's probably no need to use this patch anyway... I wonder, would it be a good idea to put `movemail' into another general package, so that other programs can use it? I think that it's generally useful enough for that.
