;;; 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.


;;; Installation

;; Basic
;(autoload 'mspools-show "mspools" "Show outstanding mail spools." t)
; Point to directory where spool files and folders are:
; (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
; possibly bind it to a key:
;(global-set-key  '[S-f1] 'mspools-show)
;(setq mspools-update t)

;; 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 spool-suffix "xyz")
; If you use other conventions for your spool files, this code will
; need rewriting.

;;; Warning for VM users
;; Dont 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 (default t)

;;; Acknowledgements
;; The code for setting up vm-spool-files came from 
;;http://www-users.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/~berg/archive/procmail/0047.html
;;  Thanks to [e-mail] (Jonathan Doughty)

;;; TODO

;; What if users have mail spools in more than one directory?  Extend
;; mspools-folder-directory to be a list of files?

;; 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 dont use the mouse much, so I havent 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).
;; Perl script counts the number of /^From / occurences.
;; ?
;; Include date
;; (substring  (current-time-string (nth 4 (file-attributes "~/INBOX")))  4 19)
;; Maybe just call a perl script to do all the hard work, and
;; visualise the results in the buffer.

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