To my constant annoyance, Xmh doesn't seem to keep .mh_profile (or "Mail/<folder>/context" or whatever) current with the state inside Xmh, even after a "commit". This means that several shell-scripts which I use to do things like playback voicemail announced by email don't work. Anyone have any hacks to make Xmh a bit more observant of the MH protocol?? One of the greatest virtues of MH is that it is NOT a monolithic program so you can build shell scripts which do useful things with mail, and while I really like Xmh for many things, returning to the closed, inaccesible monolithic mail environment is unacceptable. Sigh. -Mike
