I am considering converting all of my thirteen (?) years of email (600,000 messages) from of Maildir to MH format in order that I may easily read them and reply to them in nmh. I would prefer for them to be organized in about seven categories, with one directory per category, so some of these directories will have lots of files.
Is this a bad idea? I'm mainly concerned about speed: Other than like pick and scan on the whole folder, will anything else get very slow? I'm using Fast File System on OpenBSD. In the meantime, in case you're curious, I read these mails with a small sh program that takes a filename as input and runs inc to incorporate that single file in a temporary MH directory. _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
