IIRC, there's a special branch of Emacs where RMAIL was modified to
not convert the incoming mail to the Babyl format, and instead store
it in the mbox fiormat. I think there was also some support for MIME
in that branch.
How about merging that branch with CVS HEAD now, so that it could be
part of the next release?
This was waiting for me to modify unrmail so that it did not depend
on Rmail.
I have now done that rewrite and installed it. The new unrmail for me
with a small amount of testing, but it definitely needs more. In particular
I am not sure it really works right for various coding systems and not
sure it handles the attributes and keywords correctly.
Could people try it, and report to me that they have tried it?
This needs to be tested pretty thoroughly before we switch
to the new Rmail.
