[Nmh-workers] A question for the nmh historians

2005-05-18 03:48:43
How useful is the notion of public and private sequences?  Just curious.
It's not something that I care about at all.  The reason that this came
up was that I was giving someone instructions on how to run their inc's
using a different context via MHCONTEXT.  It worked on my system and not
on theirs.  Eventually figured out that it was because I had cur as a
private sequence and they had theirs as a public seqence which prevented
the MHCONTEXT mechanism from working properly.

I guess that there are really two questions here: the earlier one and is
this is a bug?  Would it make sense to force sequences to be private if
MHCONTEXT is set?
