I think what Kevin suggested is the right approach. I've always had my mail delivered (via procmail) to multiple maildrops (originally mbox-style, now maildir). When I'm ready to read mail, I use inc, or, more usually, a wrapper that does a sequence of incs from all the maildrops into the corresponding MH folders. The only thing that ever writes to my MH folders is inc, and that's always driven by me. paul =---------------------- paul fox, [email protected] (arlington, ma, where it's 74.8 degrees)
