Don't care. It is just getting hooks on how stuff works.
My mailbox is also a massive document storage area (960Mb), so I need to
preserve the contents in a manner that allows roll forward to whatever
comes next.
Whilst netscape communicator has some serious problems (daily crashes,
16k search filter limit = 3 users, etc), it also has some nice features
(searching, new message indicators at a glance = handle high daily
volumes, etc). So it is not that easy to do away with.[1]
So it is beginning to look more and more like procmail to collect it all
and sort it into various inboxen and then the best
integrated/combination for new message flags, reading and searching.
[1] for some reason mozilla ran like a dead dog when I tried it
recently.
