Oh, good.

Here's something I noticed. The configure script says:

-----------------------------------------------------

GNU Mailutils configured with the following settings:

Default mailbox scheme ........ mbox

...

Mailbox formats:

IMAP .......................... yes
POP ........................... yes
MH ............................ yes
maildir ....................... yes

-------------------------------------------------------

Shouldn't that list of optional mailbox formats include dotmail? Is the 
default always mbox, or can it be any of them? If any, I guess it should 
include dotmail.

There's also this old thing, which I haven't heard any resolution to:
