Section 4.4 Re: filters

`pick` is a mail-aware grep-like filter
I use it in a chain-like way via:
    alias pscan 'scan `pick !:*`' #tcsh

One could argue that `mark` is also a filter.

Section 4.5 Re: IMAP
You should probably revisit the list discussion and include some of the points?
For instance, most of those who spoke up seem to support falling back on the
Unix Way and farming out IMAP support to some other tool, be that a FUSE layer
or something else. Some IMAP features would not be readily available, but the
general mailstore would be, at no cost to us...

Re: habits

exmh is not pretty, but mh-e has its followers, and is no worse (and indeed
better for not tying up a terminal, just a buffer) than elm/pine/mutt.
