Postilion is a mail client with the NeXt look so should be of interest
to those using Window Maker and Afterstep. It is derived from tkRat, but
has some improvements in addition to the interface change.
Postilion uses virtual folders to map to your real mail hierarchy. This
can be a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping. Postilion has a couple
of features that are useful for mail archiving. One is "dynamic"
folders which will automatically store mail based on things such as
sender address or date. Another feature is the database. Mail can
be archived into a database which is handy for storage as well as
searching. Multiple virtual folders of type "database" can be setup with
different attributes. Any messages subsequently moved to these virtual
folders will be entered into the database with the attributes that were
specified for the respective folder. This can also be done on-the-fly
through a dialog box.

Redo the postilion port: - Don't use the imap library that comes with it --
use the cclient port. Don't even extract it. - Don't bother patching
configure and Makefile.in(s) -- use a local Makefile. - Use the latest
TCL/TK 8.3. This port does not provide any loadable packages, so I chose
not to use tclstubs, but link with libtk and libtcl directly. - Remove
the tkstep cruft -- it was commented out since forever. - Finally fix the
options.tcl -- the env(MAIL) logic was backwards.
(1) Add new variable, XFREE86_VERSION, to specify which version of XFree86
(3 or 4) to depend to when USE_XLIB is set. XFREE86_VERSION defaults to 3
for now, but adventurous users can override it in /etc/make.conf. When
XFREE86_VERSION=3, USE_XLIB will add a dependency to x11/XFree86; when it
is set to 4, the dependency will be to x11/XFree86-4-libraries. When
XFREE86_VERSION=4, the PKG_IGNORE_DEPENDS and ALWAYS_BUILD_DEPENDS hacks
to avoid messing with XFree86 are turned off.
