Re: [Nmh-workers] mime-aware filtering?

[Jeffrey Honig]

A few points on this discussion:

1) The person who promised to re-write the API was an Internet Elder.  Google it.

2) Callbacks vs data structures

   One reason you might want to have callbacks is that the content might be GPG or otherwise encrypted and you may want to prompt the user.  You could of course put methods/callbacks in the data structure to handle this.

3) Expanding MIME messages into dirs

   a) Don't forget about encrypted content when using a cache,  you probably don't want to cache it.

   b) If you use .msgnum.mime would most clients ignore the dirs (i.e. .55.mime)?
