i think i got distracted by the mention of marmite and beer-brewing in the same paragraph. :-P but really, i think your proposal goes further than necessary. clearly, i don't think much of a "solution" is currently necessary at all, since i don't think there's much of a problem. but i don't think the additional issue you raise, of typo'd headers, is a big one -- and in any case it feels somewhat orthogonal to the namespace pollution issue. if we wanted a "typo solution" (which, as you say, would probably involve teaching nmh about all valid headers), we could implement that on top of any namespace we choose, independent of Nmh- prefixes. paul =---------------------- paul fox, [email protected] (arlington, ma, where it's 57.9 degrees) _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
