I am thinking of changing to some Emacs mail package than RMAIL/mail. I'm particularly interested in packages that read some kind of rc file to set up things like extra header lines rather than having to redefine functions, and packages that make it easy to keep mail in many files rather than one huge file with labels. It would be nice if they spoke RMAIL format files, though not essential. Anyone have experience of any of the other packages? --tim

It's great and allows all the fine things you requested. It's only one little problem: MH is *very* big - the binaries on my system (i386) are stripped about 4 MB.
