Re: maildir and nmh/mh

[Lauren Weinstein <lauren@vortex.com>]

Hi. No, the local mutt is sufficiently customized that switching
to another version is a no-op. I also have been trying the mh2maildir
script (though I had hoped to avoid this, and don't know if I'd
still have the same problems with duplicate messages in the mh 
hierarchies causing apparent notmuch errors). However, the script
as is fails under 16.04, apparently due to changes in the find
command syntax. An error regarding the position of the -maxdepth
option was trivial to fix, but I'm not having any luck so far
avoiding the "paths must precede expression" error from find. Thanks.
