;;; Commentary:

;; If you use a mail filter (e.g. procmail, filter) to put mail messages in
;; folders, this file will let you see which folders have mail waiting
;; to be read in them.  It assumes that new mail for the file `folder'
;; is written by the filter to a file called `folder.spool'.  (If the
;; file writes directly to `folder' you may lose mail if new mail
;; arrives whilst you are reading the folder in Emacs, hence the use
;; of a spool file.)  For example, the following procmail recipe puts
;; any mail with `emacs' in the subject line into the spool file
;; `emacs.spool', ready to go into the folder `emacs'.
;:0:
;* ^Subject.*emacs
;emacs.spool

;; It also assumes that all of your spool files and mail folders live
;; in the directory pointed to by `mspools-folder-directory', so you must
;; set this (see Installation).

;; When you run `mspools-show', it creates a *spools* buffer containing
;; all of the spools in the folder directory that are waiting to be
;; read.  On each line is the spool name and its size in bytes.  Move
;; to the line of the folder that you would like to read, and then
;; press return or space.  The mailer (VM or RMAIL) should then read
;; that folder and get the new mail for you.  When you return to the
;; *spools* buffer, you will either see "*" to indicate that the spool
;; has been read, or the remaining unread spools, depending on the
;; value of `mspools-update'.

;; This file should work with both VM and RMAIL.  See the variable
;; `mspools-using-vm' for details.

;;; Basic installation.
;; (setq mspools-folder-directory "~/MAIL/")
;;
;; If you use VM, mspools-folder-directory will default to vm-folder-directory
;; unless you have already given it a value.

;; Extras.
;;
;; (global-set-key '[S-f1] 'mspools-show) ;Bind mspools-show to Shift F1.
;; (setq mspools-update t)                ;Automatically update buffer.

;; Interface with the mail filter.
;; We assume that the mail filter drops new mail into the spool
;; `folder.spool'.  If your spool files are something like folder.xyz
;; for inbox `folder', then do:
;; (setq mspools-suffix "xyz")
;; If you use other conventions for your spool files, this code will
;; need rewriting.

;; Warning for VM users
;; Don't use if you are not sure what you are doing.  The value of
;; vm-spool-files is altered, so you may not be able to read incoming
;; mail with VM if this is incorrectly set.

;; Useful settings for VM
;; vm-auto-get-new-mail should be t (the default).

;; Acknowledgments
;; Thanks to jond@mitre.org (Jonathan Doughty) for help with code for
;; setting up vm-spool-files.

;;; TODO

;; What if users have mail spools in more than one directory?  Extend
;; mspools-folder-directory to be a list of directories?  Currently,
;; if mail spools are in other directories, the way to read them is to
;; put a symbolic link to the spool into the mspools-folder-directory.

;; I was going to add mouse support so that you could click on a line
;; to visit the buffer.  Tell me if you want it, and I can put the
;; code in (I don't use the mouse much, so I haven't bothered with it
;; so far).

;; Rather than showing size in bytes, could we see the number of msgs
;; waiting?  (Could be more time demanding / system dependent).
;; Maybe just call a perl script to do all the hard work, and
;; visualize the results in the buffer.

;; Shrink wrap the buffer to remove excess white-space?
