    > Would you like to write what should be installed in the trunk?

    I'd rather leave it to the movemail maintainer or someone else.  [It
    still needs re-writing so the locking mechanism is selectable at
    runtime, as discussed some time ago, which is the reason I don't use
    it.]

I don't know if anyone else will do it.  A run-time decision is the
right thing, but your change would be better than nothing.  So could
you adapt it to the trunk and install it, please?

Someone else can always improve it later, if we find someone to do it.
