That will be the reality too ;-). The thing is to get the ideas out
there and get people excited to do them.

Some threads spawn sub-threads. You might be interested in some
sub-threads but not others.

MH-E does threading, so if such a feature were added to nmh, we could
(eventually) take out our support. We've also added indexing, which
could be added to nmh. I'm trying to think of more MH-E features we've
added that could well be in nmh, but I'm drawing a blank. Need coffee.
