The following, (call-process "/usr/bin/movemail" nil (current-buffer) nil "pop://ams;AUTH=+APOP@fencepost.gnu.org" "/home/ams/.newmail-ams;AUTH=+APOP@fencepost.gnu.org" "PASSWORD") always produces movemail: Could not create mailbox `/home/ams/.newmail-ams;AUTH=+APOP@fencepost.gnu.org': Requested item not found But if one replaces the semi-colon in the second argument (/home/ams/.newmail-...) to movemail, things work. Passing the same command line directly to bash works as well. (How does one mark a bug as serious?)
