Has anyone come up with a decent "rcvburst" to interface with slocal? I'm not quite sure how I want to do it, since I'm concerned with the script changing the current folder out from under me and other such issues.

You can avoid this by setting the environment variable $MHCONTEXT. Something like "MHCONTEXT=/tmp/foo; export MHCONTEXT". This is described in mh-profile(5). -- John Romine

I've written one that works ok. It's a shell script. It still has debugging
on, so watch for that rcvburst.output file!
#! /bin/sh -x # lose the -x
exec 2>>rcvburst_output # delete this line
/usr/lib/X11/mh/rcvstore
ls -t $HOME/mail/inbox > /tmp/rcvburst$$
read latest_msg < /tmp/rcvburst$$
rm -f /tmp/rcvburst$$
exec /usr/bin/X11/burst +inbox `basename $latest_msg`
To make it non-debugged, follow the comments. Let me know how it goes.
