I agree that par does the job well, and use it often.

Wearing my sys-admin hat, I've be far more comfortable with people
that really know what they are doi
Silly question. I don't see any mention of buffer cache effects being
worked around. Are you running a scan, tossing the results, then
rerunning the scan?
I know with rsync on large directory trees (even when nothing needs
changed), the second and later passes are substantially quicker and I
would

Speaking as another long time mh/nmh user, it would be nice to have a
gmail/nmh/3rd party glue configuration guide in one place. Something along
the lines of:
For gmail, you want to set it up for POP3 access and these other settings,
which is found here (as of 2019)
For nmh, a sample set of confi
Is the goal to delete messages with the same subject line (but which may
have different bodies), or messages that are fully duplicates (so same
body, subject line, and most other headers)? "Duplicate" in the second case
is a lot harder as you could have messages that the received headers are

Many years ago (when nmh was mh and back before MIME was a thing and
attachments were rare, so command line stuff was able to do 100% of my
email handling) I simply had two accounts on my UNIX system. One for me and
one for my alternate ID. There was some extra work involved keeping things
straight

Not a git user, so the problem could be on my end as I'm not getting a
version that matches 1.7.1 (or newer). If I do the commands below, it
compiles and tests cleanly (but again, I'm not sure I'm getting the right
branch).
