Message-ID: <2086@batcomputer.tn.cornell.edu> Date: Tue, 20-Jan-87 16:40:47 EST Article-I.D.: batcompu.2086 Posted: Tue Jan 20 16:40:47 1987 Date-Received: Wed, 21-Jan-87 22:09:11 EST Reply-To: swb@batcomputer.UUCP (Scott Brim) Distribution: na Organization: Theory Center, Cornell University, Ithaca NY Lines: 13 I'd like to modify GNUemacs RMAIL so that if, in the process of reading in the RMAIL file it discovers mail that is still unread, it will *not* read new mail; will announce that it has discovered unread mail; and will stay pointed to the (oldest) unread mail. I've poked through the sources and I have ideas about how to do it but lack confidence (it looks complicated in there). Has anyone done anything like this already? Thanks ....
