Thanks, Cameron! I just checked at fvwm.org and it appears that fvwm is still back under active development (with a v3 apparently in the works). However, I have to say that openbox (and even pekwm) have been pretty good to me.
Btw, can I get your filer? It turns out that procmail does not allow the format of a Maildir file to be changed. One option is to figure out setting the hostname env for procmailrc (and mutt) to say localhost.localdomain (that name would be generic enough to be common across machines) or give up and continue with the MH format (though in that case, I need to figure out what is in a .mh_sequence in order for a mail-monitoring program -- originally xbuffy -- I spent days/weeks modified for sylpheed to work).
But I am interested in your filer script for curiosity's sake also. I looked around your bin pages but could not easily figure out which one it was: of course, it may not also be there.
Thanks again!
Ranjan
