i also like doing save Mail/debian-${lc:$1} in order to 1) use $home-relative paths and 2) lowercasing for canonicalization, Just In Case (silly to have Debian-User and DEBIAN-USER and debian-user) okay, it doesn't happen with debian-* lists, but it happens a lot with other email! query: does seen save ... stop processing as if you'd said "finish"? -- DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #26 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : Do you want a CONSOLE with more than 80 COLUMNS or 24 ROWS?

(It won't work with xterm or rxvt, of course -- only text-mode console display.) Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ...
