+1 After moving to it around the turn of the millennium, any incentive to look at anything else vanished, and has not resurfaced. With fetchmail bringing the mail in, and procmail distributing to half a dozen inboxes, I'm tonight going through (some of) 1400+ emails after a few days away. Procmail filtering has diverted 379 of low interest, and mutt presents the remaining sorted inboxes in priority order. And in mutt, any mail worth keeping is saved into 1261 archive mailboxes (as of this instant), so that a grep of one or two words is targeted within a small subject area. OK, it is best to let all the 1400 come in before digging into a thread, but there's almost always a few emails in the first-presented mailbox which are not list traffic, so won't have replies. No confusion will result from dealing with them while fetchmail brings in the rest. So I'm not aware of the time it takes for them to come in, and don't wee why that would be an issue. (And certainly has nothing to do with my MUA.) Erik _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
