> 'Why isn't it part of mutt "proper"?' I second the question. I suppose I should hunt around for these things and learn more about 'em, I hadn't known about this patch. It's _AWESOME_! A couple of wee-teensy wibbles: my build didn't end up getting the updates to the docs in manual.txt; and the docs on your web page don't quite match the names of the variables, but a strings on the binary | grep cache straightened that out. Wow this is great. Takes about a half-second to open a Maildir w/ 1,151 messages in it. Used to take rather longer:-). One question: the page size tuning (header_cache_pagesize according to strings on my binary, maildir_cache_page_size in the docs on your web page) I've left default, and I don't have a db_dump on my system to check with. I presume that'd be an option if I used Berkeley DB, which I don't, don't even have it installed, and don't intend to. Any way to check whatever this is with gdbm? Or any guidelines, however rude, to the tuning tradeoff involved? Thanks, -Bennett
