I have reason to want to do a scan listing of a folder from a cron job.
Since "scan +folder" will switch to that folder, this means that the
current folder might change whenever my cron job runs.
Is there a way around this?
env MHCONTEXT=/dev/null scan +foo
(I just tested that and it seems to work for me)
Ah, excellent. Thanks. So much better than I was imagining. :-)
But it does suggest to me that we should have an equivalent to -nochangecur
for folders, like -nochangefolder
Hardly needed, if we add this to the man page.
