Ah. Maildir distinguishes "new" and "already read" by whether an email is in the new/ or cur/ folder. Doing a "select all, and mark as read" on a multi-GB mbox file sounds painful. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B I prefer encrypted mail. If 1/2 of all US marriages end in divorce, and there are a good number of 3rd, 4th, etc marriages, then more than 1/2 of all 1st marriages will be permanent. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
