Subject: Mailer question
Dear Experts,
a "generic" question. I have been using xfmail for a while, but for some
reasons I am considering a new X11 mailer (I like pine but its customization
is rather annoying).
I tried KMail, but I notice that it stores the mail appending each message to
a large file that stores all the messages of a given type (e.g. all the SUSE
mail. xfmail stores data in a different way, i.e. opening directories for
each type (e.g. Mail/SUSE) and saving each message in a separate, numbered
file.
Question: which is more standard in Unix? That's because if I eventually find
a X11 mailer that I like completely, I would like to be more or less sure to
be using a non-proprietary format of archiviation.
Thanks!
G.
