The rmail*.el and pmail*.el files are now _exactly_ the same, except for trivial renamings: $ for p in lisp/mail/pmail*.el; do r=`echo $p | sed s/pmail/rmail/` b=`basename $p` t=/tmp/,pr-$b echo $p vs. $r: sed 's/pmail/rmail/g;s/PMAIL/RMAIL/g;s/Pmail/Rmail/g' $p > $t diff -u $t $r done lisp/mail/pmail.el vs. lisp/mail/rmail.el: lisp/mail/pmailedit.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailedit.el: lisp/mail/pmailkwd.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailkwd.el: lisp/mail/pmailmm.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailmm.el: lisp/mail/pmailmsc.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailmsc.el: lisp/mail/pmailout.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailout.el: lisp/mail/pmailsort.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailsort.el: lisp/mail/pmailsum.el vs. lisp/mail/rmailsum.el: $ Thus the pmail*.el files seem to serve no purpose, and having them around is confusing.
