Ah, it seems that if I conduct echo open /imaps/... > /mail/fs/ctl from within Acme, and then load up Mail, it's much slower than doing the same outside and starting Mail within Acme. Not sure why. Regardless, my appologies for prematurely calling the application slow. ☺
However, echo open '/imaps/imap.gmail.com/u...@example.com/All Mail' > /mail/fs/ctl seems to create /mail/fs/Mail, but says it does not exist when I try to to access it. Quite weird. Is it just a naming problem with the space, or something different? Regards, ak
