* README The toy here is called 'procmule', which tries to offer procmail[1]-like functionality from mu, with the procmailrc configuration language replaced with guile and the mu-guile-bindings. Of course, I'm not arrogant enough to claim that I can replace a time-tested, classical Unix tool so easily. On the other hand, I'm gluing existing tools together. Now, the big difference with procmail is that procmail is an MDA - a mail delivery agent. In practice, it typically reads a new e-mail message from standard input (it's called from the local mail daemon), and then decides what to do with it. In contrast, procmule watches a directory (or series of directories) for changes - as soon as a new message appears in one of these directories, procmule evaluates a Guile/Scheme program (typically, ~/.mu/procmule.scm) with the message available as 'mu:current-msg'.
