For pine, they are using patches from Eduardo Chappa
(http://staff.washington.edu/chappa/pine/) including maildir
support. I'll put it into bugzilla entry. And for UW-imap it seems
that it does not have maildir support in Gentoo.

Yes. This option does not need to be much configurable I think (maybe
just to let user choose which ADB field should be used as alias -
someone may prefer Full Name instead of Nick Name but it is not so
important). The goal is just to have simple thing that will make
sorting by 'From' column more usefull.

Regarding slowness due to ADB access -- the map of mail addresses
_with_ defined aliases can be stored in separated file, not in ADB. In
most cases it will contain small number of entries (no wast amount of
auto-collected addresses). This file can be read at app. start to some
structure that allows fast searching (a dictionary where address will
be used as key and alias as a value perhaps?).

It will be forbidden to have same address for more aliases. It makes
no sence either -- an address belongs to only one person. Mahogany
will pops up an error message when user tries to do somethig like
this.

I'll create a bug entry.

And... ehm, I again forgot to mention one wish (oh man, my wish-list
is getting long).

9. When forwarding a mail, attachments from original message should be
included in new one also. I remember that it was discussed here in the
past, I do not remember the solution but I remember that I did not
like it much. :-)

Thanks,

Robert
