I've often thought that in hopefully-not-too-distant future when we had IMAP support, something like this would happen: % echo `mhpath 5 8 12` /tmp/.imapcache/88932 /tmp/.imapcache/92861 /tmp/.imapcache/1034785 Or whatever ... you get the idea. mhpath would fetch the messages in question and put them somewhere local and return those pathnames. Sure, you could give a flag to mhpath to make it return IMAP URLs, but if we did that then I think we should return URLs for all messages. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
