such that /ssw/users/mcr is an NFS mount from another machine with many more
spindles.
I rather wish that NMH would take a "Path" to be... well.. $PATH-like thing,
such that I could move folders to an archive machine, with NMH being aware that
they
are elsewhere. Ideally, it could be told that they are even RO, burnt on DVD
or something like that. One day we'll be able to put IMAP: urls in..
