sorry about that. (i was the maintainer in the years up until mark's death.) the ruinously bad property of uw-imap's MH implementation, which i could not fix due to an impedance mismatch between the protocol and the MH message number definition, is that whenever you refile a message, both folders have to be fully rescanned.

For my archives I'm now thinking that maybe I should just convert it all to
Maildir.  Hmm.

that's what i did. but now i have no shell tools that do what "pick" does. ouch.
