Subject: [PATCH 07/23] support splitting mail from database location.
Date: Sun,  7 Feb 2021 20:40:53 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210208004109.1192719-8-david@tethera.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210208004109.1192719-1-david@tethera.net>

Introduce a new configuration value for the mail root, and use it in
preference to the database.path (which previously implied the mail was
also in this location.

Multiple changes to the CLI and third party clients will be needed to
work in this split configuration.
