Your backups aren't done by inode? > refile @tmp "$@" </dev/null && # Assumes "yes" to "create folder". > refile -src @tmp all @. && > rmf @. | (egrep -v '^\[\+inbox now current\]'; exit 0) > >A partial-packing folder(1) that only had the given message number >ranges to play with would need less lock-time. It's important to point out that there are definitely nmh commands you can't run simultaneously. e.g., if you ran "folder -pack" at the same time as sortm, all sorts of bad things would happen. Same thing with refile and inc. It looks like folder_pack() is a library function, and I suppose in theory it would be possible to what you want, but I'm personally reluctant to fiddle with it. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
