mail/: Add new (temporary) libaries for which to test Rmail/mbox such that Rmail/babyl is not affected. This creates a facility/feature called "pmail" (analagous to "rmail") that can be used independently from Rmail for testing purposes. The plan is to replace the "rmail" files eventually and remove "pmail" entirely at that point. In the interim, interested developers can use either Rmail or Pmail or both (which is not recommended for the casual User or the faint of heart).

;;; Commentary:

;;; This package provides low level functions for tracking messages in Pmail.

;;; Code:

(require 'pmailhdr)

(defvar pmail-desc-attributes nil
  "A private variable providing temporary access to message attributes.")

(defvar pmail-desc-delete-callback nil
  "A function pointer called after a message has been deleted.
It expects one argument --- the message number.")

(defvar pmail-desc-vector nil
  "A vector of message descriptors.
A message descriptor contains data formatted as follows:

	(START ATTRIBUTES KEYWORDS DATE LINE-COUNT SENDER SUBJECT)

where

	START is a marker at the beginning of the header

	ATTRIBUTES is a string where each character encodes an
	attribute.  A hyphen (-) indicates that the attribute is not
	set:

		ANSWERED  The message has been replied to (A).
		DELETED	  The message has been marked for deletion (D).
                EDITED    The message has been edited (E).
		FILED     The message has been filed (F).
		RESENT    The message has been resent (R).
                STORED    The message has been saved to a file (S).
		UNSEEN	  The message has not been read (-).

	KEYWORDS is a list of User defined label strings.

	DATE is a list of strings describing the message date:

		DAY-OF-WEEK	Mon, Sun, etc.
		DAY-NUMBER	9, 13, 15, etc.
		MONTH		Feb, Jun, etc.
		YEAR		2001, 2002, etc.
		TIME		12:03:25, etc.

        LINE-COUNT is the number of lines in the message.

        SENDER is the name of the User sending the message.

        SUBJECT is the subject header, cached to support fast summary line generation.
