I find this situation quite embarrassing. Why hasn't the maintainer of pop3.el (Rich Pieri) been informed of our changes?

XEmacs 21 does not break the stock pop3 (it uses efs in that situation). So for now there is nothing to worry about. But on the other hand, the XEmacs developers did the same thing, just on a much larger scale. Compare my code with the pop3 in XEmacs 21 and you will see very, very significant differences. The XEmacs develpers never informed me of these changes, either, nor have they honored my request that they change the name so as to avoid confusion. Both sides have told me to take a hike by telling me nothing, so I'm like, "fuck 'em both". It really is not worth my time and energy to fight over it. -- Rat <ratinox(a)peorth.gweep.net&gt; \ Ingredients of Happy Fun Ball include an Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ unknown glowing substance which fell to PGP Key: at a key server near you! \ Earth, presumably from outer space.
