This is just an implementation issue. The big problem is that the current system doesn't support the deletion, renaming, moving and copying of the repositories. Using the current system you'd only be able to create new folders/repositories. The underlying cornerstone is too limited to support this and needs rewriting. > > Using multiple repositories like this: > username > username.folder1 > username.folder2 > username.folder1.subfolder3 > > Then username will have access to his message hierarchy. > > Stefano > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
