Re: mutt writes Fcc: even if the MTA fails to deliver

I do it day in day out. Use the imap or maildir with the header cache
and it's really quick. :-) Even with the slow and now stable db-4
interface.

(faui03) [~] time work/mutt/mutt-tg/mutt -f ~/Maildir/.lists.uml -e 'exec exit'
real    0m5.759s
user    0m2.370s
sys     0m0.910s

this was on my dog slow SunFire 280R a mailbox with 25.000+ messages.
And with dog slow db-4 database. GDBM can do faster:

(faui03) [~] time work/mutt/mutt-tg/mutt -f ~/Maildir/.lists.uml -e 'exec exit'
real    0m3.191s
user    0m2.300s
sys     0m0.610s

better, and from a pool linux pc with gdbm and header caching *via* *NFS*:

(faui08q) [~] time work/mutt/mutt-tg-linux/mutt -f ~/Maildir/.lists.uml -e 
'exec exit'

real    0m0.797s
user    0m0.640s
sys     0m0.100s

Oh and now the vanilla mutt Sun Fire 280R:

(faui03) [~] time work/mutt/mutt-cvs/mutt -f ~/Maildir/.lists.uml -e 'exec exit'
real    0m9.573s
user    0m6.140s
sys     0m3.300s

And here we go with the Linux box via NFS and vanilla mutt:

(faui08q) [~] time work/mutt/mutt-cvs/mutt -f ~/Maildir/.lists.uml -e 'exec 
exit'
real    0m40.793s
user    0m1.890s
sys     0m1.580s

All of them were cached of course.
