I have my mail in Maildir format and the folders have thousands of messages.
I want to find all the messages which have been moved into this folder
since the last time I checked so I can train my spam filter.
The spam filter will want to change the
One way is to open the folder, trundle through each message, and compare
each messageID with a list of old IDs.
This seems slow.
Another way, is to keep a list of all the files in the folder and see
which file are new to the folder and by-pass Mail::Box altogether.
I'm concerned about multi-session access.
My current idea is to convert the file name into Mail::Box index and
access it that way. Is that enough locking?
What is the right way to do this?
Advice is always welcome.
