Are you saying that you'd like to see the nmh cli abstracted to the point
where it could work on different flavors of mail store? If so, that seems
like a big change. Sort of like the hooks, but with a DLL interface
instead of the shell?
yes.
OK. That's a really cool idea. One could even contemplate using gmail as a
mail store to make it easier for the NSA to read your mail. Maybe the hooks
should be replaced by one of the DLLs. This sounds like a huge change in
the codebase, so hopefully someone is up for it. Being geezer-ish, I would
like to avoid as much as possible the modern plague of having a program
spend more time loading libraries than doing anything else. I forsee some
heated API design discussions :-)
