Well I'm running exmh 2.0 /2.0.1 and nmh 0.20 at home and work.
I've recently noticed a very disturbing problem of my .mh_sequences
file disappearing (I really appreciate the line length limitations
being lifted).
What I'm now doing:
1) very carefully using rcs on my .mh_sequences file
2) carefully sequencing my use (i.e. not trying to do
multiple things concurrently)
3) not using NFS (to make sure that wasn't a problem)
My .mh_sequences randomly disappeared. I didn't see any place in
exmh where the .mh_sequences file is written directly (am I right?)
I did notice when I was being very careful a
folder -pack
erase my .mh_sequences file
(what I'm doing is useful to recover a .mh_sequences file until I pack).
I've had to recover my .mh_sequences file more than a dozen times in the
last few weeks.
