I hadn't realised that Pan had the concept of a 'cache'.
Why does it need such a thing? Why couldn't it simply put the postings in
some directory and just keep going within the capacity of the file system, so
that *I* can control which ones are kept and which are deleted?
I mean, KMail doesn't use a cache (does it)? It just keeps stashing received
email into the .../mail/inbox/cur directory. Seems to work fine!
