XBuffy
08/20/97
Xbuffy was written by Bill Pemberton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and was based on
Xmultibiff by John Reardon. Xmultibiff can be found at ftp.midnight.com.
I was looking for a replacement for XBiff. I use the filter program
(it comes with elm) to separate my mail into several different
mailboxes. I looked at a lot of replacements for XBiff until I
found Xmultibiff. Xmultibiff was very promising, but it didn't
do quite what I wanted it to do, so I modified it to create XBuffy.

So, I would suggest contacting Bill about xbuffy.
